- A brief but somewhat detailed tutorial on how to get started using the Freeform modelling tools in Autodesk Inventor. This module was a hugely needed addition to Inventor and with it comes a new learning curve, hopefully this will help get you started. #Autodesk #Inventor #Tutorial #3DCAD #Design #Engineering #CAD

Dear all!! - if you're looking for a good computer to run Inventor, you may then be interested to know that I have now developed and released the worlds most comprehensive FREE benchmarking test for Autodesk Inventor with a global online leaderboard. See the announcement video here ua-cam.com/video/Xck3lvuMRjM/v-deo.html and check out the leaderboard here invmark.cadac.com/#/ - all designed by me, Neil Cross TFI.
This is brilliant! You just explained every use of 3D freeform modeling that I didn't understand for years. This opens up a big world for me.
You're a hero, every time I hit a road block in one of my projects I look to your videos and quickly find enough info to blow past it. Cheers, bud!
O.M.G. As you said at the intro of the video-gamechanger. This is exactly what I needed to stop spending HOURS trying to do something that seemingly (should be) simple! Boats of love for your videos. I SUBSCRIBED!
I love your videos. You always help me out in a pinch - Inventor puts me in loads of pinches. Thanks for being around. cheers!
Great tutorial, love the presenting style! You said that if we're hoping you're going to show us how to design that thing we want it's not going to happen? Well I'm a furniture designer and you just showed me EXACTLY what I wanted to know! Cheers dude!
Super nice to see that you made a video about freeform. Now i wish they would add STL file editing with freeform :D
Awesome video, been trying to work out how to do something myself and never even looked at freeform before till I seen this video!
This video is perfect. Recently been getting back into design for 3d printing and have been wanting to dabble in some more organic and complex shapes. Lofting and sweeping are fine but take way too long to get some real complex shapes and textures going.
great video. plz continue your work! I really appreciated it
reealy really helpful video to get started :) thank you!
Thanks. I do all my learning on UA-cam so this helps a lot.
Cheers
Cool introduction tutorial, thumbs up button from me!
Great video. Thank you very much.
Another fucking awesome video bro! Thanks for making Inventor Professional fun to learn.
Thank You! This stuff would take a while to figure out just by playing around.
I know the video says about 7 years ago I just got into inventor last year and this helped out a lot thank you for your videos
Thanks, my students love freeform.
very useful video. Thanks!
Great Video!!! Thanks!!
Thanks for taking the time to make this. It's doesnt' seem too daunting to use.
Thanks TFI it was very inspiring :)
Very noice tutorial. Thanks a lot
Thanks man it helps a lot...
It's the latest and greatest ergonomic chair!
Nice video, good volkswagen pun!!!
This is so cool i have no idea what to do with this
Amazing video
Excellent
Gracias!, muy didactico.
amazing teacher
great video
The intro is literally earrape with headphones
Well done
Great Vid ... Now please do something on Stress Analysis. That would really help!
yes please do.
Still use inventor
great job. an other strange funktion in inventor i now know ive never be able to use :D
I've been hired to draw a manniquin head and its been kicking my ask!!! I want to try freeform, but I've never used it, before redrawing your headphone/speaker holder thing... well something similar anyway. Thanks sweetie.
Very nice sir
More Golden Wisdom from TFI CAD.
awesome video, very to the point and smooth. Follow up question if you have time to answer. can you selectivly thicken only part of a part? I.e thicken a face or multiple selected faces?
Just recently ran into your video series. I love it, all praise to those who choose to share the knowledge. Not a big fan of your Yankee bashing, just kidding i love the comic relief! [uh-loo-muh-nuh m] FTW... Keep em coming!
thanks so much
Imagine having to create technical drawings for freeform modeled parts.
I'm in the midst of designing a curved handle for a charging station and I'm stuck in how to taper to a dimension. Picture a tube ~25.41mm diameter and ~101.61 in length but I would like the last 25.41 mm to taper to a 15 mm hole that slopes down. In where I'd normally use the loft feature, can I use free form to apply this feature? Would it be best to rough outline in sketch then use free for only the aesthetic values?
I know this might be beyond the scope of the basics behind this video but tying free form with constrained sketches, is key for me. Thanks a bunch, been subscribed to you for a little while and I have learned a lot from your videos.
Hi thank for posting this video. I have a question. Im a noob and have been trying to learn free form for a few weeks now. Im in the middle of making a model using several individual free formed parts. My problem is that when I try to make a new part after I set my symmetry and click okay the symmetry disappears. I have no idea what I've done wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Do you happen to know if there are any advantages to doing industrial modelling in applications like Rhinoceros or Alias compared to Inventor? I'm under the impression that if one can model in Inventor then they won't need the other applications right?
I want to learn inventor for cad modeling, is the freeform modeling tools are like fusion 360 ?
Great vid. Here's a question.... I've tried before and could not figure it out so it may not be possible... Can you sketch something first and then constrain the edges on the centerline of a freeform to the sketch entities?
+Jess Neal Erm... haha yes but it involves a bit of fiddling, sounds like decent content for a new video though! What situation are you doing this in? Anything specific?
+TFI CAD Tips Yes... Specifically I wanted to try and find an easier way to model pistol grips. Using the traditional methods is very time consuming and I had to get sloppy on some operations. I could send you an example ipt if you want.
NealTHX for the freeform videoWould it be possible to make a sketch on paper scan this in introduce tat skech in Inventor and using it as a Template to do the freeform drawing ?for example you skech a car body and make the 3D freeform off those bodu parts using your hand drawing?And when that drawing is done how do i proceed to convert this drawing in to an actual part.Take careFrancis
dude your fucking hilarious haha, you are the shit!!!!!! thank you sooo much bro saving me so much time and you make it fun.
Is it possible to produce parametric bench forms as in Rhino with grasshopper in Inventor software please?
is there a way to constrict free form to a modeled frame? for example, you model a wooden sofa construction frame and you make free form and constrict it to the wood frame? that way if we change the measurements of the wood frame will free form follow?
Free form doesn't store any dimensions that's its free form, but you can merge the solids later on
Addressing the why would you model cloth. Say I create a curved upholstery frame, and it works. I have maybe used some basic surfacing and trim operations to acquire the OA shape, and I arrive at having a wooden frame. Now I want to take the freeform plane, have it snap to the shape of the frame (sort of like the Autodesk promotional video of a race car seat), and pull it to where it appears as the final product. When I viewed that video, I believe to be from 2005, I could see where I wanted to go. I have hundreds of frames to snap to, or conform to, just no technique. You can also get to a place where you have surfaced, and need to snap to that geometry. At the same time, I could understand how someone that had that technique might be a little hesitant to share, nothing new in the CAD employment world. If I get there, I probably will share, since I am getting up there in age, and might retire at some point soon. For the UA-cam video I mentioned, go to ua-cam.com/video/rzMRKECetf8/v-deo.html.
Does anyone know why that freeform panel (and others) are completely missing on my 2018 inventor?
Check the panel hadn't been turned off? Right click on the ribbon bar and check the menu. Go into the addins too and check they aren't blocked or disabled
Hello, i do not save the file. "error loading segment pmbrepsegment in database D:\.......\..\.....ipt". Help me please.
WOОORKING!!!! OMG!!!
0:16 - No, I didn't know. I clicked a "mistery button" on the end of another video.
1:25 - Literally anything... Restricted to 2-3D solids and surfaces :P
"what the fuck is a t-spline" omfg hahah
I am new to inventor and CAD in general. Would it be possible to create a free form car?
Of course, you can do anything with it... Will be much work though. I'm trying the same thing at the moment.
is there anyone know how to draw the drum of miele washing machine
Congrats ! you build a chair :)
How do you mirror a freeform?
although ima hella use this to my advantage in 3d printin
No it's not an imitation of mudbox or maya, it's a different back end and obviously nowhere near as good. These are t-splines whereas I think maya is nurbs based. But aye it'll be sweet for doing stuff for 3D printing
TFI well maya can use nurbs and polygon shapes ,and in terms of how its trying to manipulate edges and faces,it is imitating maya,honestly though i just wish they would add in the alt + mouse button view controls like they have in most of their softwares
Skip to 4:04 for tutorial
This would have made my miserable life a looooooooooooooooooot easier when I was in design school. GOD EXISTS!!!! He takes some time but he EXISTS...!!!!! And this is the proof!!!!
...God, I hated Autodesk Inventor with all my heart, stomach and one of my kidneys back then.
and an imitation of maya too
I can make a plastic bag!!!??
delicious
sacki shaki
Please share the link of software crack, i need crack
Bro you talking a lot for 1st 4mins
so basically this is inventors poor attempt at imitating mudbox
Charlie Baker - As Autodesk own and produce mudbox, as “3D digital painting and sculpting software”, its hardly a poor attempt, or imitation of anything. Horses for courses.
great, but..... you talk a lot
too much talking
to tell something so simple, ur taking thins much time going on streaching and streaching bla blaa blaaa
I quit after hearing the silly voice..
