This was the best Fusion to X-Carve tutorial - I've looked at others and they go a little too deep. This really focused on the stuff I need to know to start out - well done!
Thanks man! Yeah I tried to keep it concise so anyone can get started and get something made. And if they want to learn more, they can go to the more in-depth tutorials :D
Agreed. Awesome tutorial on fusion to x-carve. I can design almost anything in fusion, but I struggle with CAM. Often times I find myself taking measurements from fusion and recreating as best as I can in Easel. This video was perfect for taking that next step
I've been putting off learning this stuff, and I don't know why. Thanks for the no-nonsense approach. Within a few minutes I had a 10 in and a 6 in plate modelled up and ready to cut.
I took 3D auto 16 yrs ago and this is blowing my mind! My CNC gets delivered this fall and trying to get a head start on learning how to run it ahead of time. Great video
Great video, helped a ton! I’d love to see something a bit more complicated or using some different cutting modes but this was perfect to get me started!
As someone who has just purchased their first desktop cnc and has no idea where to start, this was a great clear guide. I use Fusion 360 for my 3d printing and would like to use it for my projects for the cnc as well, so I will be sure to keep tuned on your videos and no doubt will be watching this one back multiple times while trying to get my head around the cnc. Cheers
Fantastic video. I've used fusion 360 for my 3d printer but didn't know where to start for my new cnc. This has totally got me going. Thank you thank you thank you
Ok i have to say wow, and thanks one of the few extremely detailed start to finish tutorials I have seen regardless of software. Very in depth as to why you were doing each step. Subscribed and will check out your other videos. Not sure if you have done one as I havn't looked yet, but would love to see a 3d version.
oml I have been saved by this man. I had to make a deep(ish) groove for a part, and I couldn't figure out what operation to use. This man knows his shit. Also, I personally like to use face mills/shearhogs when taking off large bits of material, then going and getting a nicer finish. idk if this is right, but it's just how I do it.
I agree with others this is great intro video to Fusion 360 and CNC. Having full understanding of path from CAD to CAM is very helpful. I use Fusion but don't have CNC (yet 😁).
I am new to CNC, I do know fusion which I use for my 3d printer and lightburn for my laser. I had a really hard time finding a video to show me set by step on how to use Fusion and Easel with my CNC, I even watch Lars Christenson who showed me how to use Fusion in two weeks for the 3D printer. Then I happen to find this video, you were able to show just what I was looking for in very simple terms for me to understand. THANK YOU!!! I am looking forward to discovering more of your Videos in the future.
Best fusion 360 tutorial, I wish you would more of these videos. I just got a cnc and I been following along your videos to apply machining to my own designs
differnly liked this thank yiou ive usied fusion 360 for 3d printing but using 3d printing to make a cnc to make more awesome things but still learning how to make things always
This is a great video thank you. I have a question, I modified your directions to make a smaller dish. I am finding on the 2d contour tool path it is not cutting all the way through my stock. I am using double sided tape and a probe to find my zero. Any ideas what I could check or change to make sure it cuts through my stock completely?
Great video but I keep getting the same issue - once I do the final step to create the toolpath, the bit shows on the Z axis and the toolpath shows that it will only cut from the side as opposed to the top. I suspect that somewhere I have an incorrect setting but cannot find it. Any suggestions?
Awesome tutorial! Thank´s so much for sharing. There is just one thing, which does not work for me: The second step in the setup mode which generates the parallel shapes does not work for me. As Fusion only generates parts of the shapes and not the whole path as in your video shown the cnc does not remove all the rest of adaptive clearing. Is there any setting which I have to made in any step earlier to get fusion to drive all the paths as in adaptive clearing?
Great video. I'm using 1/8 bits with a similar process and I wonder, since I'm using bits with the same diameter, if the adaptive clearing is always necessary or if I could just jump straight to parallel?
Thank you so much for this tutorial, Alex, I’m a new follower! I work for a concrete company and I operate a FrogMill360 machine, but I wanna learn how to make programs! 😁 thanks again.
Hey, so I’m having a problem with my setup. When I run the program through my cnc it’s only cutting down 1/2 the depth of the model. Almost like I have a .5 where I should have a 1 on the z step down… it doesn’t appear to be a problem with the machine… could you help me figure out what is going on? I’m using fusion and a Mpcnc with marlin firmware…
I am still waiting for my machine to arrive and wanted to view a simple "how to" video that would help me understand Fusion360. I could not be happier! This was brilliantly done, well paced, and yet I could see on the screen exactly what you were doing. Prior videos I have viewed have included horror shows of the CNC eating its rails and such so I was wondering if perhaps I had made a huge mistake. Thanks for taking the time to do this! I'm a fan and I will subscribe.
Great video thanks mate. Your were clear, easily understood and moved through the process efficiently. A little fast in places but that's what the pause button is for as I reviewed each part of the process in more detail. One of the better video's that I have seen on the process all the way from CAD to CAM to Control. Wish you had something on a Genmitsu 4040 especially how to set up the tools!! 😵💫
THAT WAS AWESOME!! thank you so much, straight forward and everything, I'm new to all of this accept woodworking, I'm a carpenter, about to buy the onefinity or the xcarve, this week so this was a great little look into it, very well said and easy to follow!
Awesome video, I am just getting started and this happened to be exactly what I needed for my first project. I had tried Easel and Carveco and neither had an easy way to create a custom fillet. Also their toolpaths were all kinds of unnecessary, my cut time for a better cut went from over 1.5 hours to just over 22 minutes. Thank you!
Ohhh I actually have an idea for an inlay video, but might be a little different from what you expect. I’m going to try it and see if my plan works haha. If it does, I will put one out before end of the year
My import was a little different since I am using a shapeoko, but this tutorial was amazing! I was able to get to my first 3d carve going. A huge thanks for posting! I have to see why my origin was moved to the center rather than bottom left, but I was easily able to change that on the machine side. Again, thanks so much!
Thanks Alex, great video! Very good for someone who's already somewhat familiar with Fusion and with using a CNC. It's the perfect quickstart guide (I have a 3018 that I got years ago and I've been just using Inkscape and 2d carves/svg files.... been wanting get into 3d carving so this is my ticket in!)
Can you do a video that explains when you would use the different XYZ plains? I guess, another question I have is, would you use any other plains besides XY when draining up a sketch for a CMC project?
I usually only use the XY plane when doing CNC projects. It makes sense to me since the XY plane would be the bed of my CNC. I’d use the other planes for modeling only
I think you’re right. It’s only necessary for the second toolpath. I’ve just always had in my mind that the first one requires it to tell the second toolpath “this is where it starts”. So I haven’t ever tried skipping it for the first toolpath
Great tutorial, im all new to CNC and manufactoring on Fusion, only done 3D printing. If I have a model I made, I would like to NOT fillet the edges, but instead use the CNC with another bit to make the rounded edges, just like you do with a router. But I cant seem to make it. Do you have a guide for that too?
You can do that with a bowl bit and a 2D pocket tool path. But the radius is limited by the radius on the tool. For one-off projects like this I like to customize the fillet size, which is why I do it this way
Thank you for the video on Fusion. Is it possible just to slow the presentation down a little bit for us octogenarians please or to show where in fusion you are talking about as I'm very new to both.
Great video but I find using the Easel/GRBL post processor and then GSender as a better combination. The interface in GSender is just slicker with better probing, no easel driver required, inbuilt surfacing and diagnostics. It's free but I'd pay for it if they asked.
Awesome video! I have an x-carve but have been looking to make the switch to F360 so this was timely. Well done! One Q: will the carve stop between tool paths by itself to change tools? Or does Easel consider each of the frames you imported one job?
Hey! Easel will stop after each “workpiece”. It’ll move the bit back to the home point. You’ll switch out the bit, and it will ask you if you want to use the previous zero point. You’ll want to select “use previous zero point”, and then you’ll want to re-calibrate the Z axis since every bit will be different length. And then just press Carve again
Great tutorial thank you so much. Quick question: did you say you have to have the paid version of Fusion360 to do ATC in one file? Looking at the Carvera so I am wondering if I have to pay for Fusion360 to use the ATC feature or if maybe I can use their post processor to enable ATC on the controller side.
so when the 1st operation is done how will i know exactly where my mill should be on all coordinates in order to continue where it should after shange and not like 1mm off to one side?
The XY origin won’t change from operation to operation, unless you decide to reset the origin. But you’ll have to recalibrate just the Z axis after each bit change
@@BevelishCreations ok so there is an option to move the end mill in all axis to set it where ever i want i to be and once i start xy doesn't move and once it's done with one operation it comes back to the start and lifts up so i can change the drill, how much does it lift up and how do i recalibrate it, can you make a video that adds onto this one and shows that process where you ended?
Yeah after you’re done with one operation, the machine automatically goes back to the XY origin that you had set. And the control software will allow you to move the Z axis up or down so you can change the bit. And the control software will have an option to “calibrate XYZ” and another option to “Calibrate Z”. Just click on the second option and use your regular calibration method (by eye or using a probe). And then run the second operation. I can make another video sometime, not sure when though
Yeah if we cut the piece out, there’s no good way of holding it down for the parallel pass. We could use more double sided tape, but the parallel pass takes a long time and we never know what could happen in that time.
@@BevelishCreations the newer one came with a Mikita 1/8 router. Also do you have to manually adjust your spindle speed or did the machine automatically do it?
Once more: great for sharing! Tried something similar, but only for computing the toolpaths it took hours. Milling it would take perhaps days... How much time did this operation took Fusion and how much time did your CNC need?
Hey I used the Inventables X-carve in the video. It’s a great machine for beginners. But I’ve since upgraded to a Onefinity, which has much stiffer rails, so I get much better results
excellent video, only thing is please dont pan away from the screen so much, some of us with less brain cells need longer to see whats going on and do it in fusion. easy to follow and straight to the point though.
@@BevelishCreations 3D Adaptive Clarning in Geometry tab, Machining Boundary can't keep Selection. If Selected Machining Boundary and Stock Contours, toolpath cannot run. I kept Machining Boundary None and Stock Contours_Stock Selections not Select, the toolpath can run and it's going to cut away all of that extra stock. You also said that. Edit: Sorry for my mistake. I forgot to check Machine Cavities and Flat Area Detection in Passes Tab. Thank you very much.
One year later your video is still providing a noob to CNC a nice guideline for Fusion 360. Thanks!
Would love seeing more Fusion 360 design tutorials. Good job!
Thanks!
dude this was a great video. i had to watch it 10x but it helps each time i watch. i am a rare user of these tools and i dont make much at all

I’m not sure what you have in mind but Fusion won’t let you post process with multiple tools. You have to do the separately

Just out of curiosity would there have been any downsides with combining steps 1 and 3 so you would only have one tool change?
Yeah if we cut the piece out, there’s no good way of holding it down for the parallel pass. We could use more double sided tape, but the parallel pass takes a long time and we never know what could happen in that time.
My xcarve came with a 1/8 collet, did you just upgrade to a 1/4 collet or did it come with it?
No, I had to get the Dewalt router with the x carve, and the router had a 1/4” collet. Not sure about the newer X carves
@@BevelishCreations the newer one came with a Mikita 1/8 router. Also do you have to manually adjust your spindle speed or did the machine automatically do it?
Makita should have a 1/4” collet. You’ll have to adjust the speed manually. You’ll need a spindle if you want to do it automatically
Once more: great for sharing!
Tried something similar, but only for computing the toolpaths it took hours. Milling it would take perhaps days... How much time did this operation took Fusion and how much time did your CNC need?
It took about 2 hours total to cut the whole thing
HI! Which CNC machine are you using? Would you recommend it? Or perhaps some other CNC machine? Thanks!
Hey I used the Inventables X-carve in the video. It’s a great machine for beginners. But I’ve since upgraded to a Onefinity, which has much stiffer rails, so I get much better results

It seems F360 CAM doesn't have the ability to easily handle a compression tool path. (no way to do ramp down first then lead in to the part)
That actually took longer than I thought it would to generate. Then again I was using a generic tool just to follow along with the video.
Man, it's So much harder than 3D printing! Is the software just not as good as 3D printing or is CAM just so much more complex than 3D printing?
excellent video, only thing is please dont pan away from the screen so much, some of us with less brain cells need longer to see whats going on and do it in fusion.
easy to follow and straight to the point though.
Excellent Tutorial. But I can't 3D Adaptive Clearning. All of the steps are the same.
Why not?
@@BevelishCreations 3D Adaptive Clarning in Geometry tab, Machining Boundary can't keep Selection. If Selected Machining Boundary and Stock Contours, toolpath cannot run. I kept Machining Boundary None and Stock Contours_Stock Selections not Select, the toolpath can run and it's going to cut away all of that extra stock. You also said that.
Edit: Sorry for my mistake.
I forgot to check Machine Cavities and Flat Area Detection in Passes Tab.
Thank you very much.
