How To Design 3D PRINTED TOOL HOLDERS in Fusion 360
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 лип 2024
- In this Fusion 360 tutorial, I'll show you how to design custom 3D printed holders for your favorite tools!
During the design process, we’ll cover a variety of useful tools including canvases, offsetting sketches, extrude, construction planes, splitting and joining bodies, projecting sketches, user parameters, creating a tolerance with press pull (offset face), creating mounting holes and exporting to a slicer!

If you have access to a flatbed scanner, use that. You should find that if the image has the correct DPI in the metadata, it will be perfectly scaled. And there should be no geometric distortion as opposed to a camera photo. If you do use a camera, use the highest optical zoom available and take the photo from as far away as possible. This will minimize distortion. Great tutorial! ☮️❤️🌈
Good tip, thanks!
Lots of useful tricks in this tutorial! TIL about construction planes and splitting/combining bodies! I’ll trade you one: there is a hole tool for creating holes for screws including angled countersink for common screw heads 👍🏻
Thank you! Im a huge fan of construction planes 😊
I’m a big fan of the hole tool and didn’t use It Because l mistakenly thought it couldn’t do simple cylindrical countersinks like what I made here. But now I know!
Great to see the design problem solving process. There’s so many ways to accomplish a task in Fusion it’s always great to see how someone else does it. Nice color choice, it’s super easy to find exactly where to put the calipers away.
Thanks Dave! Apparently I think in planes where a lot of people think in sketches
Excellent video. Used this to make a hole for a remote in my room. Took less than an hour and am currently printing. Thank you!
That’s awesome, it makes me so happy to hear when people are inspired to make something from my videos 😊
Great work Morley, I'm always tinkering around with Fusion, really liked your design process, it was similar to how I would have done it, although I must get into using User parameters as it seems to make things much more organised. Keep up with the great videos 👍
Thank you!
Love this video because you sharing the steps and thoughts as you model the holder helped me with Fusion. I look forward to more videos like this. Thank you Morley!
There is a cool feature in F360 for holes that allows you to create the countersink, depth, diameters.
Nice presentation and very helpful to convey the requirement for tolerances.
I did this exact same thing a little bit ago having never seen this video, when I saw yours on your website I was shocked how similar it was to the one I made. Makes sense considering there’s not all that many ways to hold calipers, but I found it funny because my calipers holder was also printed in red.
Whoa what a coincidence!
Wow, great tutorial Morley i feel way more confident doing 3d modeling now after watch this
Thanks man, that’s awesome to hear!
New to f360 and 3d printing. This is EXACTLY what I needed, so thanks!
Perfect timing! I needed a short project to train some people on 3D printing, definitely sending them this video.
That's awesome, thanks dude!
Thank you for this! Awesome video!
This is an amazing tutorial. Thank you very much.
LOTS of good info in here. Your fusion skills really come through.
Thanks man! Glad I could provide a variety of tips and techniques 😊
I think mixing this with a din rail mount rather than a screw would make this even better 🤔 I think I’ve finally figured out how to hang my tools 😊
Very helpful! Thank you.
Awesome!! my mind is a sponge with your videos.
Love it ❤️👍
That’s great to hear, thank you!
this was exactly what I was looking for, thanks a lot!
You are amazing, keep up the good work👍🏻
Great tutorial!
Very good tips!
super helpful! thanks for the upload. new sub here looking for any and all Fusion content!!
Nice design. Love how the holder is the shape of the tool. That way someone else can put away your tools for you! : ) Mahalo for sharing! : )
True! Would be great in a shared workshop
Use more fillets. Especially in the XY plane where they work out well. Will make your designs feel and look more finished.
If you have a scanner it works even better. Or fix the lens deformation and angle first in lightroom/photoshop. That way the dimensions are more accurate.
Great video, maybe taking care of adding constraints to fully define the sketches would be better, or at least prevent funky behaviour
Great video! Any reasoning behind not using metric for your dimensions? I personally find it much more convenient to design in metric to make wall thicknesses and other relevant features direct multiples of my printer settings so I know I’m getting exactly the size I want.
I do a lot of woodworking so my caliper and other measuring tools are all in inches. It would definitely be easier to work in metric for taking into account perimeters and layers - maybe I will switch one day 😊
Really enjoyed this one! Looking forward to trying it myself! Just out of interest, what video editing software are you using?
Thank you! After making this I want to fill the whole side of that cabinet with 3DP tool holders for my favorite desktop tools haha.
I use Sony Movie Studio Platinum (basically a cheaper version of Vegas).
Good stuff, just wish you used metric :-)
Haha thanks, and sorry, I grew up learning imperial! One day I’ll make the full switch to metric.
@@MorleyKert no prob. fully understand, itswhat one is used to.
Why didn't you use the Hole feature, which would have done the countersink and hole in one step.
Best MAC options to convert iPhone photos to jpeg?
Eeeryday I want a 3d printer more and more
Send it!
It's annoying to have to constantly pause a video and ask Alexa to do unit conversions, can you just give the measurements in mm like a sane person? -- Seriously, if you have to go down to thousandths of a unit, then it's probably not the right unit to be using...
You can change parameters in fusion.
