When i watched this video i had never even drawn a line in this software as it looked overwhelming to master, but your video is so easy to follow that you have eased me into this program perfectly thank you so much for your time and effort to making these tutorials available. excellent job thanks, best wishes George👍👍
George, thank you very much for your kind words! I'm very pleased and proud to hear that this tutorial helped you getting started quickly. This was exactly my intention when I was planning and recording the video. Thanks for watching! Have a great and creative week. Best, Ben
@@3DGladiator While I have seen a tutorial that is easier to follow, it is because it was a far simpler design being worked on. What i love about this one is it is easy to follow and covers lots of important elements that are going to transfer to many different projects, where the other one only got you the very basics. Excellent work very well explained, thank you for taking the time to make such a great tutorial.
By far the most informative and understandable video I have watched on Fusion 360. Thank you so much for NOT talking and moving as fast as theaters I have watched. I am just now, at my advanced age, trying to understand CAD. you have helped me realize that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
I've been trying to learn Fusion 360 for like 2 years now and the learning curve seemed to be very steep. Today I started watching this video and I must say this makes a lot more sense than any tutorial I've seen so far. Thank you so much for the super simple explanations. I will finish this and try a design first. Then I might post new comments but so far I like this a lot.
I really like this tutorial. It's very quick and thorough. I pause and replay a lot to make sure I understand before moving on. It is quick, but I love that it doesn't waste time between each point. The only suggestion I have is to include chapters in this video to make it easier to stop and come back to a different part at a later time.
I had gone thru 100's of tutorials last year when I was checking out and learning Fusion 360. I had a pretty good handle on it and then stopped using it for about 9 months and forgot a lot of what I learned. This is by far the best all around video to either begin using the program or refresh yourself in the function of the this powerful program. Excellent job of the content, sound and video quality.
Mr. Gladiator. Your knowledge and skill with Fusion 360 is astounding! I purchased my first 3D printer 2 weeks ago with the hope of learning to print items for my model railroad. I am a long-time SketchUp user (20+ years), but I quickly discovered it would not be adequately powerful enough to create the models I needed, at least without some major hoop-jumping. I went searching and found Fusion 360. I am a total beginner, and the learning curve looks like Mt. Everest. Your video has given me hope that one day I might actually be able to accomplish something. I learned many valuable work-flow concepts. Fusion 360 is an amazing program; it seems there are no limits. When I was learning to play guitar I sat in front of my old record player, lifted the needle, sat it back down on the outer edge of the disk as many times as I need untilI learned to play the song. Guess I'll be doing that with your video. Thanks for posting and sharing your knowledge.
Honestly, this tutorial is crazy good. When I first looked at the coffee pot I thought that it was way too complicate as a first project (since I'm quite familiar with it), but you really broke it down into very digestable pieces! Thank you!
I have been using fustion for some time and watched hundreds of "how to: videos, this one blows them all away. Clear concise instructions and showing all the little tools, amazing.
Haven't touched CAD in years, just got Fusion 360 for a simple part I wanted to have made. This video got me on the way to achieving that goal, thank you!! It was really fun, I'm going to make more stuff now.
I've been using Freecad to learn on, and have been frustrated by it simply not working. I have wanted to learn 3d modelling for so long but have been hampered by rubbish software, and the limited options for the Mac.. All of the Freecad pain is now turning to joy now I can apply what I've learned to a software that works, Fusion 360. What a fantastic program, simple, easy, not glitchy, it does what I expect it to. Really enjoying learning it now, it's so fun. Thanks for the tutorial, you are a great teacher, I appreciate that you show different ways to do the same thing. All the best! Andrew
CAD is not considered 3D modelling. Fusion is not a 3D modelling software. Fusion is a technical 3D drawing application. Stuff like Blender/Maya are considered 3D modelling, just so you are aware of the terminology :)
This is exactly my experience as well. FreeCAD is so finicky and stubborn even for simple stuff. Compared to FreeCAD Fusion360 seems like it can read my mind sometimes :D
Oh my goodness, thank God i found your tutorial, i am only 7 minutes in but you are the easiest and most comprehensive teacher on this that i found on youtube! thank you for making it easy to understand for absolute dummies at 3D like me :)
Thanks for the tutorial. I'm just a high school student who has an elective at school where we are required to self-learn tinkercad and fusion 360. Tinkercad was easy enough but when I logged onto fusion, it looked so confusing. I had watched like 3 tutorials before this one and I gotta say this one really helped me get a grip on fusion 360! Again, thanks a lot!
Ordered my CNC and whilst waiting on delivery I decided to start learning Fusion 360. I pretty much gave up after the first 2 videos. Now , not so much. Seriously looking forward to doing some more. Probably this one again first though. Don''t think I have ever stopped, skipped back and rewatched a video so much before. Took me 3 Hours Total :) well worth it though. Subscribed and off to look at your library. Thanks
Thanks for watching and your comment Darren. I know, no time to rest in this one 😅 For a more in-depth explanation I recommend watching the first few videos of my "Saurer RK-7" series where I explain a few concepts in detail. I'm not going to upload any more Fusion stuff in the future though, as I felt in love with everything Crypto related. Just to let you know. Best, Ben
Having watched a few Tutorials by other Presenters I have managed to create some simple models, with varying degrees of ease and success, but after watching this one I now feel a lot more confident. You have clarified many of the basic concepts, missing from the other ones. I appreciate how you explain where and why you use specific functions and commands for their relevant context and situations. This has been a huge breakthrough for me, thank you. However, as an Engineer (Toolmaker turned Cabinetmaker), I struggle with your use of centimetres, with the occasional mm thrown in, as I think in either mm or metres, as do all the machines and other people in these Industries. I appreciate that you are attempting to reach a wide audience and that the Fashion Industry folk and Graphic Designers may be more familiar with Centimetres, although if they are going to be using Fusion 360 for CAM purposes, they will most likely be forced to work in mm or inches anyway. Apart from this tiny point, I feel that this is a very well constructed, (no pun intended) Tutorial introducing many of the various functions and how to use them in a 'real life' and relatable context. Well done and keep up the good work.
Thank you very much for your comment and your kind words! The dimension issues is a very valid point and was already criticized by many viewers. It's just plain wrong to build something like this (or basically anything) using centimeters instead of millimeters. Happy New Year. Best, Ben
This was amazing. Easy to understand and kick-started my journey. Just 1 hour into the video and I was already making my own parts and 3d printing them!
Now that I'm nearly finished working through the project for the first time, I can comfortably say you've produced a tutorial with the highest educational density (learning per unit time) I've had the pleasure of following. You've got a new subscriber. One issue I'm running into is associating the constraint icons to their associated objects. Is there a way to list all of the constraints (and other objects) in a sketch and their properties?
Thank you very much for your comment, your kind words and your support. This really means a lot to me! I'm very happy to hear that you appreciate my work. It took quite some time to put this together. Long-form content like this is not so common on UA-cam, but I still think it helps people who want to get started the most. Let me know if you have any questions, I'm always happy to help. Have a great and creative week. Best, Ben
Thank you so much for being a true beginner tutorial. I've only watched 5 mins and you've already coved more information that most of the other tutorial i've been finding. There's to many people who teach with the "follow me exactly step by step" is the same thing as learning a program.
this is awsome , im an engineering student and im half way thru, i was inspired by some woodworking youtubers to learn about fusion 360 even tho we learn solid works at college ..Im so exxcited about this ..thank you so much. much love from India
Thanks for watching and your subscription. I really appreciate it. Please keep in mind that I don't new Fusion videos anymore. It's all Crypto from now on. Best, Ben
Hell yeah brother! This is a great tutorial. I haven't messed with 3d software in almost 20 years and I can't wait to dig deeper after work today. I like that you just jump in and start making something that looks complicated. I can't believe how powerful this software is.
I've been using Fusion 360 on and off for a few years, but really never got into using the "form" tool, This video gave a good explanation on how to use it, so thanks.
Thank you man. I learn a lot of thing from your lesson. I'm just a infantine for Fusion 360 3D software. You teach every single detail in your lesson. Thank you a lotttttttttt. Good luck and happiness for you and for your family.
You're welcome! Thank you very much for your comment, your kind words and your support. That really means a lot to me and keeps me motivated to create more and hopefully useful content for you guys. Hearing that someone was able to make a step forward watching my videos makes my day! Thank you very much. Take care! Best, Ben
This video is awesome! I purchased my first 3D printer. I had an idea and wanted to work on inventing it. But, to work out the design it would be cheaper just to get my own 3D printer. Then came the CAD part. I really wanted to like FreeCAD. I did my ultimate best with FreeCAD. But, if I had continued I would have no hair left. I would have pulled it out. After trying for a week I gave up. From crashing to bugs. To frustrating. I decided on Fusion360. First video to learn Fusion360 was yours. I'm creating lots of small design now. Loving it. Thanks for the awesome training video!
thank you for explaining the interface and why something is the way it is. Too many of the tutorials are just do X then do Y. As soon as you try to do something yourself its a struggle. Once you understand what is going on and the thinking behind the interface things get a lot easier.
@12:10 I discovered it matters which edge you choose. Only two of them will result in the (near) vertical purple line being at the outside edge of the 1st sketch where you want it. Other edges will show the vertical purple line midway inside or at the origin.
Thank you! 100% new to this. I had re-watched this section many times trying to figure it out. **edit** never figured it out and had to abandon the project for a different tutorial.
Wow, this software is amazingly powerful. Just bought a 3d Printer CNC machine and realized I have to learn Fusion 360, however, I think it will take some time. your tutorial is a great tool to get me started. Thanks.
Great tutorial! I kept putting off learning CAD because of the high cost per year, but the free version of Fushion is more than I will ever need. I’m 70 years old I am already learning CAD at a good pace. It’s a learning curve for sure. You must be considered an expert! I’m curious what you do for a living, and why you stopped making videos?
Seriously this video has got me started faster than the "other" ones who are supposed to be "pro", they talk about things so much that could simply get you lost.
Heya mate thank you for this..ive been intimidated to get into Fusion, I tried doing something a few months ago but stopped in frustration. Ive just completed the boiler coffee basket and filter and about to start the collection chamber. I'm feeling proud. Lots of pausing and rewind and listen again(dropping play speed to .75 has helped) my Roomate who lives upstairs is very impressed with what ive done so far he's quite experienced with Fusion 360.. Im only following directions from you but my coffee pot is a little different design so using the tools your teaching to make a model that represent my dimensions.....thank you :)
A bit hard to catch up but it definitely helped me to grasp onto a lot of the F360 workload! And My entry exam will probably go very well, good lesson!
Thanks man, this is such an excellent starting point that covers a lot of different tools and methods. I've done what you suggested and watched the video right through without touching Fusion myself, so now it's time to get my hands dirty!
You real world examples are spot on thank you. Will be following you now and see what all you make easier to understand and learn more about Fusion 360.
I've been using Fusion for a few years to design robotic manipulators and chassis for the FIRST Robotics Competition, so I was a bit concerned when I was assigned a "beginner tutorial" in my engineering class. However, this tutorial still had some very useful things that I hadn't learned yet. (I hadn't even heard of variable fillets before this tutorial!) Great tutorial, and definitely worth watching even if you already have some experience with the program.
Thanks for watching and your comment Brian. The tutorial was recommended in your engineering class? This is cool! I feel honored and I'm glad it was helpful. 🤩 Have a great weekend. Best, Ben
Just completed this tutorial and my project turned out great. Thank you so much for walking me through this. I did run into one slight problem toward the end when making the lid joint. I can select the center of the pin, but cannot select the center of the hole in the hinge. I ended up selecting the face of one of the outside holes and then just offset the whole thing until it was centered.
Great job on the video. Other 'get started in Fusion 360' videos are kind of dated and the software looks just different enough today to lose me. Yours was really well done. Thanks.
Great video! Very helpful. One thing that kept throwing me off though was you would say to enter a specific parameter (like a dimension or an angle of a fillet) but what you said versus what you entered is different. That happened multiple times and at first I got frustrated because I couldn't figure out why mine wouldn't work. Once I realized the issue, I just made sure to not just listen but also watch exactly what you do.
Thanks for your comment Greg. Yes, I made this error more than once in this tutorial. I'm sorry for that. I promise to focus on this more in the next one. Best, Ben
Thank you for this incredible tutorial. This is easily one of the best videos for learning different techniques, tools, and processes within Fusion 360, especially for someone like me with some, but not a ton of experience.
Thanks for watching and your kind words Louie! This was exactly what I had in mind when I was recording it. It's not the super basic beginner tutorial people are used to, because I start modeling right away without explaining all functions first. It is addressed to users who are willing to put in the work. When you follow the tutorial from start to finish, you should get a good feeling for how to address different modeling tasks in Fusion. Thanks again for watching! Have a great and creative week. Best, Ben
I have to say this has been the most useful tutorial i have found to date, i really learned a lot and have been using fusion for a while now as a hobby! thank you!
Wow! Awesome. It really helped me. I was trying to build something else, but because you chose an object that is not just a simple shape, the video covers everything. Thank you so much.
I'd learned just a few basics before watching this video, and now I'm confident I can create what I want with Fusion (if I remember everything). You went a little fast for me, but I'm old. :-} I'd totally buy you a coffee if you ever get to the U.S.
Great to hear! Glad I could help. Thanks for watching. I hope to be able to visit the U.S. soon again. I contact you then to get my coffee...😀 Best, Ben
Wow what a great Tutorial. It is challenging and fun. It is equivalent to about 20 of the Fusion360 Tutorials all in one. Sure you will be have to look back a couple (or maybe 30) times and understand the concept but at the end all is clear and one gets a sense of the logic behind the software. Thank you very much.
Nice video; Good instruction, good pace. Suggestion / tip: 27:25 When you 'shell' the 'basket' select BOTH the top and bottom surfaces. This will give you a perfect shell, with holes where you'd expect them. AFTER this shell-command doe the fillet.The same applies to 1:30:50 when you open the inner tube / nozzle.
I think of all the tutorials that I have watched or gone through. Yours is the only on the has pointed out the space mouse. I have been using mine for some time, and for anyone the want's to learn 3D design software. It is the only way to go.
Thanks for your comment! I have just finished a new video where I talk about the SpaceMouse Enterprise Kit 2 and how to use it in Fusion. It will be available soon. I couldn't live without one. Best, Ben
If i can just share a screenshot on how I precisely copied the Burner, Basket and chamber here, I 'll do so hahaha Because of your tutorial I am now confident to start 3D modeling and 3D printing.. I just recently bought a Vyper and now searching here to improve my designs. Thank you so much! Jason (Philippines)
Great idea to show the creation of a product from scratch so that many features are covered. One issue, and I have this with most of these tutorials including from AutoDesk: You show things like creating a rectangle in Sketch mode, but how do you set the dimensions? You go so quickly, cannot see how you do it. And if you want to adjust the dimension later, what do you click on? In regular apps like Shapr3D on the iPad, you just touch the line and an input field opens up. It seems Fusion and other pro CAD apps work in a very different manner. In summary, please go much slower or pause after each operation. :)
Thanks for you comment Alex. If you are new to Fusion, I suggest you watch these short videos first: academy.autodesk.com/software/fusion-360 Things will make more sense afterwards. Best, Ben
Dimensioning is key for CAD'ing. Having studied as an engineer, it always bothers me when I see sketches which are not fully defined. As for your question, (under SKETCH) go to CREATE (dropdown) --> Sketch Dimension. Alternatively, you can just press "D". Everything else should be in the constraints section.
For your first question you press D and click line to add dimention when in sketch mode Second question. After you add a dimension you see the value popup where u set it. U can double click it and change it. For complex designs use Parameters. Can be located in the modify tab i believe. Look a vid specifiacally on that for it to make sense
honestly thank you so much. at the beginning i thought this kettle thing would be pretty hard to make, but you explained it so well, and now after just 12 hours of using fusion, i already am making stuff i had wanted to make long before i knew how to use fusion. Ive tried like 5 tutorials, none of them worked, i got too caught up in the beginning of others
This is exactly what I was hoping for this tutorial - to equip people with the skills they need to start working on their own projects. Thanks for watching and your comment. Best, Ben
First I'd like to say thank you for taking the time to do this tutorial. It's been very informative and I've enjoyed the process so far in it being my first use of Fusion 360. I'd also like to see if you could help with a part I've been stuck on for a while now. I wish I could send a video of what I'm doing but I'll try explaining as best as possible. In working on the lid, I made the initial circle the same size as the outer rim of the collection chamber and followed directions to adjust the shape and make the proper trims around the 1:10:00 mark. When I try to extrude the lid, only the part inside of the rim is able to be extruded. It's as if the original circle I made for the lid caused the rim of the chamber to be cut off. Thanks for any insight.
This was excellent, I’ve been stuck in my solid tab, i didn’t even know what t splines were, and showing how to jump out into the surface modeling and back was really intuitive thanks so much
Really liked this video, a good crash course in learning everything to make a model in one hit! I probably should have taken the advice and watched it through and then watched a second time to follow it step by step, but pausing and catching up in Fusion on the first go did work ok.
G'day mate from Australia I have been watching different channels about Fusion 360, and THIS one has shown me so much more. You are a BONNZA (great) teacher, as we say in our Ozzie's grammar. I'll be watching all of your videos blogs now. Thanks a million mate. Happy3dmodeling Greg. PS. If you have not done one yet, could you shown us how to copy a sketch from a finished project and paste it into a new component, under it's sketches. Looking forward to see that one immensely. Greg
Hi Greg, thank you very much for your comment and your kind words! I'm glad you find it useful. Copying sketches from one document to another is very easy and straightforward: - enter sketch mode and select the sketch entities you want to copy (double click on a single line segment to select the entire profile for example) - hit Ctrl+C and exit sketch mode - create a new design or a new component in the current design and start a new sketch the same way like you would normally do (by selecting an existing face or starting a new sketch one of the three sketch planes) - and then simply hit Crtl+V to paste the sketch lines. That should do the trick. Let me know if this works. Thanks for watching my videos. All the best, Ben
The image that I'm using to trace the handle can be found on the Bialetti website: www.bialetti.com/it_en/coffee-makers/moka/rainbow-561.html?variant=3 (it looks like they have updated the page and removed some of the product images that were previously available...) For the logo, I have just searched "Bialetti Logo" on Google and converted a high-res image into a PNG file with transparent background in Photoshop.
Great tutorial, that really helped a lot! Sometimes a little too fast to rebuild it in parallel but with 0.75 speed it was perfect and I managed to follow till the end. Thank you! Coffee bought ☕
This is great to hear! I feel honored that you followed till the end. And thank you very much for the coffee!!! I really appreciate your support. Have fun creating in Fusion. All the best, Ben
I cannot loft the lid. It says: "Cannot create tool body for loft." I have only two profiles selected, the rim around the bottom part and the circle on the offset plane above. I've watched you do it dozens of times replicating everything I see you do. I can't get it to work. Any ideas?
I'm only 15 minutes in, but so far very good. I've watched a few videos by the Fusion people (very hard to follow so I gave up on them) and a couple of other UA-cam ones. Yours is amongst the best. I like how you include little BTW moments as you go that are applicable to what you're doing. It is a little fast (sometimes have trouble with your accent, but turning on closed captions helps with this) and all the random extra cursor movements and fidgeting with the model are distracting (might be an idea to use a larger, coloured curser). Given it's so long and packed with good info, it might be better to do something like this in a bunch of videos. Good model to demonstrate building.
Great video, great pace. I have only being using Fusion for about a week and this is exactly the kind of video I was looking for. Please post more, I feel like there is a lot in just the sketch mode that needs to be explained for more complex engineering diagrams.
Great hands-on video with live modeling illustration.....i have used Fusion 360 for some easy modeling, but your video helps me advance further ;) thank you thank you!
Jan, don't worry...We are all "dummies" when it comes to stuff like this... Wasn't taught in school, at least not in the USA...Just get a job, make your employer rich...while you stay broke or barely have a life....I have 5 planes, and 2 custom cars I wanna design...I'm here to learn...Cheers 🍻!!!!
I've been having an issue with the projection for the bottom and top chamfer. When I select the edges EXACTLY as you have shown, the purple projection lines aren't placed on the edge going to the center as your projection line is, for some reason (I spent 45 minutes doing it over and over to be sure i wasn't miss clicking and making sure i did the EXACT clicks you did) it gives me a projection line in the middle of the surface instead of the edge, so when i revolve it the very edge is left looking like 8 skinny legs instead of a clean chamfer. They only step i didn't follow from the video was setting a coincident constraint off a corner to the construction line with the vertical constraint. For some reason it does not allow me to do it, I get an error "failed to resolve, please try revising dimension or constraints.
I got stuck here too, but the problem (at least for me) was in not creating the second and third sketches on the correct plane. It's not the same plane as was used in the first sketch.
This tutorial blows my mind. EXCELLENT work! I am so happy you take the few seconds to show stuff like the zoom/pan and rotating. Explain stuff and not only how it happens but WHY it happens. I am going to go get some snacks and then watch this video atleast once fully before opening Fusion again! GREAT work!
Thanks for watching and your subscription. I just want to point out that I'm not gonna upload any new Fusion videos in the future. It's all crypto from now on. Best, Ben
Thank You for a god job! The only remark I would like to do is... In the world of engineering we don't use centimetres, we use millimetres. Thanks again!
Coming into this video it was rather challenging. Probably spent like 2 hours for the first 30 minutes. New user's orientation is different from this tutorial. Fix this by 1. Select your profile icon right below the X on the top right corner. 2.Click "Prefence" 3. Click "General" tab on the left box 4. Select "Default Modeling Orientation" and change the selection from "Y up" to "Z up" This will solve any orientation issues. Overall as I continued with the tutorial I started to get the hang of it, and it gets easier as you go. Don't give up!
Thanks for watching and your subscription. Please keep in mind that I'm not gonna upload new Fusion videos anymore. It's all about Crypto and NFTs from now on. Best, Ben
@@3DGladiator It's okay! We have investments in that space too so I'm sure I'll learn a lot from you! My new saying is: Forget Gold...I'm a Coin Digger! Bahahhhaa!
well i got the bottom made, thanks for the help. Ill be doing the top hopefully tonight. Im having a plane problem, I think, on the project I need to get done, When I sketch a circle on the face and extrude it it goes sideways not down. What am I doing wrong.
Great! You're welcome! This sounds like a plane issue indeed. If not otherwise defined, a sketch gets always extruded perpendicular to its plane. Regarding your request, I feel honored, but I have to say no. I'm fully booked and cannot accept any new jobs right now. Thanks for watching!
Loving the video so far, by far the most comprehensive. A little fast but that's what pause buttons were made for. Only one small issue. Where do I get the image for the TSpline section?
Thanks for watching and your comment Michael. A reference image of the handle can be found here: www.bialetti.com/it_en/coffee-makers/moka/rainbow-559.html?variant=1 Best, Ben

I've been trying to learn Fusion 360 for like 2 years now and the learning curve seemed to be very steep. Today I started watching this video and I must say this makes a lot more sense than any tutorial I've seen so far. Thank you so much for the super simple explanations. I will finish this and try a design first. Then I might post new comments but so far I like this a lot.
U are a legend. I have been using Fusion360 for 3 years and this is the most comprehensive and concise tutorial video I have seen.

I am a long-time SketchUp user (20+ years), but I quickly discovered it would not be adequately powerful enough to create the models I needed, at least without some major hoop-jumping.

I've been using Freecad to learn on, and have been frustrated by it simply not working. I have wanted to learn 3d modelling for so long but have been hampered by rubbish software, and the limited options for the Mac.. All of the Freecad pain is now turning to joy now I can apply what I've learned to a software that works, Fusion 360. What a fantastic program, simple, easy, not glitchy, it does what I expect it to. Really enjoying learning it now, it's so fun. Thanks for the tutorial, you are a great teacher, I appreciate that you show different ways to do the same thing. All the best! Andrew
CAD is not considered 3D modelling. Fusion is not a 3D modelling software. Fusion is a technical 3D drawing application. Stuff like Blender/Maya are considered 3D modelling, just so you are aware of the terminology :)
This is exactly my experience as well. FreeCAD is so finicky and stubborn even for simple stuff. Compared to FreeCAD Fusion360 seems like it can read my mind sometimes :D
Oh my goodness, thank God i found your tutorial, i am only 7 minutes in but you are the easiest and most comprehensive teacher on this that i found on youtube! thank you for making it easy to understand for absolute dummies at 3D like me :)
Thanks for the tutorial. I'm just a high school student who has an elective at school where we are required to self-learn tinkercad and fusion 360. Tinkercad was easy enough but when I logged onto fusion, it looked so confusing. I had watched like 3 tutorials before this one and I gotta say this one really helped me get a grip on fusion 360! Again, thanks a lot!
Excellent, this sounds great. Thanks for watching. Best, Ben
Ordered my CNC and whilst waiting on delivery I decided to start learning Fusion 360. I pretty much gave up after the first 2 videos. Now , not so much. Seriously looking forward to doing some more. Probably this one again first though. Don''t think I have ever stopped, skipped back and rewatched a video so much before. Took me 3 Hours Total :) well worth it though. Subscribed and off to look at your library. Thanks
Thanks for watching and your comment Darren. I know, no time to rest in this one 😅 For a more in-depth explanation I recommend watching the first few videos of my "Saurer RK-7" series where I explain a few concepts in detail. I'm not going to upload any more Fusion stuff in the future though, as I felt in love with everything Crypto related. Just to let you know. Best, Ben
Having watched a few Tutorials by other Presenters I have managed to create some simple models, with varying degrees of ease and success, but after watching this one I now feel a lot more confident. You have clarified many of the basic concepts, missing from the other ones. I appreciate how you explain where and why you use specific functions and commands for their relevant context and situations. This has been a huge breakthrough for me, thank you.
However, as an Engineer (Toolmaker turned Cabinetmaker), I struggle with your use of centimetres, with the occasional mm thrown in, as I think in either mm or metres, as do all the machines and other people in these Industries.
I appreciate that you are attempting to reach a wide audience and that the Fashion Industry folk and Graphic Designers may be more familiar with Centimetres, although if they are going to be using Fusion 360 for CAM purposes, they will most likely be forced to work in mm or inches anyway.
Apart from this tiny point, I feel that this is a very well constructed, (no pun intended) Tutorial introducing many of the various functions and how to use them in a 'real life' and relatable context.
Well done and keep up the good work.
Thank you very much for your comment and your kind words! The dimension issues is a very valid point and was already criticized by many viewers. It's just plain wrong to build something like this (or basically anything) using centimeters instead of millimeters. Happy New Year. Best, Ben
This was amazing. Easy to understand and kick-started my journey. Just 1 hour into the video and I was already making my own parts and 3d printing them!
Wonderful! That's what I like to hear. Thanks for watching. Best, Ben
Now that I'm nearly finished working through the project for the first time, I can comfortably say you've produced a tutorial with the highest educational density (learning per unit time) I've had the pleasure of following. You've got a new subscriber.
One issue I'm running into is associating the constraint icons to their associated objects. Is there a way to list all of the constraints (and other objects) in a sketch and their properties?
Try to click + hold on a line or a sketch point. This brings up a small menu where you can select the sketch entities and constraints.
@@3DGladiator Thanks, I didn't know that worked for constraints. But is there no way to list all constraints (or other objects) in a sketch?
I'm excited about this crash course, everything summarized in a compact way, your work was worth it.
Thank you for this wonderful contribution.
Thank you very much for your comment, your kind words and your support. This really means a lot to me! I'm very happy to hear that you appreciate my work. It took quite some time to put this together. Long-form content like this is not so common on UA-cam, but I still think it helps people who want to get started the most. Let me know if you have any questions, I'm always happy to help. Have a great and creative week. Best, Ben
I've finished the entire course, and even as a beginner, I learned a lot from it. Thank you so much!
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching and your comment. Best, Ben
Thank you so much for being a true beginner tutorial. I've only watched 5 mins and you've already coved more information that most of the other tutorial i've been finding. There's to many people who teach with the "follow me exactly step by step" is the same thing as learning a program.
this is awsome , im an engineering student and im half way thru, i was inspired by some woodworking youtubers to learn about fusion 360 even tho we learn solid works at college ..Im so exxcited about this ..thank you so much.
much love from India

This is the best instructional video I have ever watched. For anything! Ever!
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching and your comment. Best, Ben
Hell yeah brother! This is a great tutorial. I haven't messed with 3d software in almost 20 years and I can't wait to dig deeper after work today. I like that you just jump in and start making something that looks complicated. I can't believe how powerful this software is.
Glad you like it! Thanks for watching and your comment.
I've been using Fusion 360 on and off for a few years, but really never got into using the "form" tool,
This video gave a good explanation on how to use it, so thanks.
Thank you man. I learn a lot of thing from your lesson. I'm just a infantine for Fusion 360 3D software. You teach every single detail in your lesson. Thank you a lotttttttttt. Good luck and happiness for you and for your family.
You're welcome! Thank you very much for your comment, your kind words and your support. That really means a lot to me and keeps me motivated to create more and hopefully useful content for you guys. Hearing that someone was able to make a step forward watching my videos makes my day! Thank you very much. Take care! Best, Ben
I was stuck for way too long on the part when you extruded the threaded section of the base. I kept hearing you say "point five" CM but it was 1.5
This video is awesome! I purchased my first 3D printer. I had an idea and wanted to work on inventing it. But, to work out the design it would be cheaper just to get my own 3D printer. Then came the CAD part. I really wanted to like FreeCAD. I did my ultimate best with FreeCAD. But, if I had continued I would have no hair left. I would have pulled it out. After trying for a week I gave up. From crashing to bugs. To frustrating. I decided on Fusion360. First video to learn Fusion360 was yours. I'm creating lots of small design now. Loving it. Thanks for the awesome training video!
Excellent tutorial! I appreciate you incorporating so many different tools into one video.
Glad you enjoyed it Richard! Thank you very much for watching and your kind words. Best, Ben

How is it going now 2 years later?
@@Fabz_media I just started it myself
Here in 2024 starting my journey.
Mee tooo starting
lmfao same
I like how you use almost every basic tool you need to build the vast majority of objects, and even simple assemblies. Well done here.
Thanks for watching and your comment! Best, Ben
thank you for explaining the interface and why something is the way it is. Too many of the tutorials are just do X then do Y. As soon as you try to do something yourself its a struggle. Once you understand what is going on and the thinking behind the interface things get a lot easier.
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching and your comment. Best, Ben
@12:10 I discovered it matters which edge you choose. Only two of them will result in the (near) vertical purple line being at the outside edge of the 1st sketch where you want it. Other edges will show the vertical purple line midway inside or at the origin.
Yes, this is correct.
Thank you! 100% new to this. I had re-watched this section many times trying to figure it out.
**edit** never figured it out and had to abandon the project for a different tutorial.
I still don't get it. How do you select the smaller line at the bottom (to make it purple alongside the longer vertical edge on the side?)
@@praigleo5883 You click on one of the bottom edges like the ones that make up a side of the octogon.
@@3DGladiator this is an issue of this tutorial. I just dont get the wierd selection.
Wow, this software is amazingly powerful. Just bought a 3d Printer CNC machine and realized I have to learn Fusion 360, however, I think it will take some time. your tutorial is a great tool to get me started. Thanks.
Thanks for watching. Yes, it takes some time, but once you have a good understanding of the basics, building in Fusion is pure fun. Best, Ben
Great tutorial! I kept putting off learning CAD because of the high cost per year, but the free version of Fushion is more than I will ever need. I’m 70 years old I am already learning CAD at a good pace. It’s a learning curve for sure. You must be considered an expert! I’m curious what you do for a living, and why you stopped making videos?
Seriously this video has got me started faster than the "other" ones who are supposed to be "pro", they talk about things so much that could simply get you lost.
I suspect this truly excellent video has been more of a tremendous help to more people than you realize. Thank you so much.
Thanks for your kind words Jeff, much appreciated!
Can confirm 👍🏼
This is one of the most satisfying modelling experiences I've had! Fusion 360 is so cool. Thanks very much for this straightforward tutorial.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching! Best, Ben
Heya mate thank you for this..ive been intimidated to get into Fusion, I tried doing something a few months ago but stopped in frustration. Ive just completed the boiler coffee basket and filter and about to start the collection chamber. I'm feeling proud. Lots of pausing and rewind and listen again(dropping play speed to .75 has helped) my Roomate who lives upstairs is very impressed with what ive done so far he's quite experienced with Fusion 360.. Im only following directions from you but my coffee pot is a little different design so using the tools your teaching to make a model that represent my dimensions.....thank you :)
A bit hard to catch up but it definitely helped me to grasp onto a lot of the F360 workload!
And My entry exam will probably go very well, good lesson!
Way better than the beginner guide from the official Fusion 360 channel, thanks great vid :)
Glad you think so!
Thanks man, this is such an excellent starting point that covers a lot of different tools and methods.
I've done what you suggested and watched the video right through without touching Fusion myself, so now it's time to get my hands dirty!
Great to hear! Thanks for watching and your comment. Best, Ben
You real world examples are spot on thank you. Will be following you now and see what all you make easier to understand and learn more about Fusion 360.
Thanks for watching! Best, Ben
I've been using Fusion for a few years to design robotic manipulators and chassis for the FIRST Robotics Competition, so I was a bit concerned when I was assigned a "beginner tutorial" in my engineering class. However, this tutorial still had some very useful things that I hadn't learned yet. (I hadn't even heard of variable fillets before this tutorial!) Great tutorial, and definitely worth watching even if you already have some experience with the program.
Thanks for watching and your comment Brian. The tutorial was recommended in your engineering class? This is cool! I feel honored and I'm glad it was helpful. 🤩 Have a great weekend. Best, Ben
First time ever that the first video I watch to learn a new skill happens to be a freaking good video!
Thanks for watching and your kind words!
First time on a Fusion 360. And your video tutorial was a big help for me to start on. Big Thanks.
Glad I could help!
Just completed this tutorial and my project turned out great. Thank you so much for walking me through this. I did run into one slight problem toward the end when making the lid joint. I can select the center of the pin, but cannot select the center of the hole in the hinge. I ended up selecting the face of one of the outside holes and then just offset the whole thing until it was centered.
Great job on the video. Other 'get started in Fusion 360' videos are kind of dated and the software looks just different enough today to lose me. Yours was really well done. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful Kurt! Thanks for watching and your comment. Cheers, Ben
Great video! Very helpful. One thing that kept throwing me off though was you would say to enter a specific parameter (like a dimension or an angle of a fillet) but what you said versus what you entered is different. That happened multiple times and at first I got frustrated because I couldn't figure out why mine wouldn't work. Once I realized the issue, I just made sure to not just listen but also watch exactly what you do.
Thanks for your comment Greg. Yes, I made this error more than once in this tutorial. I'm sorry for that. I promise to focus on this more in the next one. Best, Ben
I had a uni project using this software, however they didn’t teach us how to use it. This video was an absolute life saver 🙏
Thank you for this incredible tutorial. This is easily one of the best videos for learning different techniques, tools, and processes within Fusion 360, especially for someone like me with some, but not a ton of experience.
Thanks for watching and your kind words Louie! This was exactly what I had in mind when I was recording it. It's not the super basic beginner tutorial people are used to, because I start modeling right away without explaining all functions first. It is addressed to users who are willing to put in the work. When you follow the tutorial from start to finish, you should get a good feeling for how to address different modeling tasks in Fusion. Thanks again for watching! Have a great and creative week. Best, Ben
I have to say this has been the most useful tutorial i have found to date, i really learned a lot and have been using fusion for a while now as a hobby! thank you!
You're very welcome!
Best hands-on tutorial! Thanks, I'm following this channel right now!
Thanks for watching and welcome aboard!
only use fusion every 1 to 3 months. constantly come back to this video as I dont remember how to do things that I should. Great video
Wow! Awesome. It really helped me. I was trying to build something else, but because you chose an object that is not just a simple shape, the video covers everything. Thank you so much.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching. Best, Ben
I've been using F360 for a while now, but I learned a lot from this.

I'd learned just a few basics before watching this video, and now I'm confident I can create what I want with Fusion (if I remember everything). You went a little fast for me, but I'm old. :-} I'd totally buy you a coffee if you ever get to the U.S.
Great to hear! Glad I could help. Thanks for watching. I hope to be able to visit the U.S. soon again. I contact you then to get my coffee...😀 Best, Ben
Easily one of the best Fusion360 tutorials! Nice job!
Glad you think so! Thanks for watching and your kind words Sean.
@@3DGladiator Keep up the great work!
Wow what a great Tutorial. It is challenging and fun. It is equivalent to about 20 of the Fusion360 Tutorials all in one. Sure you will be have to look back a couple (or maybe 30) times and understand the concept but at the end all is clear and one gets a sense of the logic behind the software. Thank you very much.
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching, your comment and your kind words. Best, Ben
Nice video; Good instruction, good pace. Suggestion / tip: 27:25 When you 'shell' the 'basket' select BOTH the top and bottom surfaces. This will give you a perfect shell, with holes where you'd expect them. AFTER this shell-command doe the fillet.The same applies to 1:30:50 when you open the inner tube / nozzle.
Good tip! Thanks for the feedback. Best, Ben
This is the best educational video on you tube!!! Clear with no missing parts !!! Thank you so much!!!
Glad it was helpful!
I think of all the tutorials that I have watched or gone through. Yours is the only on the has pointed out the space mouse. I have been using mine for some time, and for anyone the want's to learn 3D design software. It is the only way to go.
Thanks for your comment! I have just finished a new video where I talk about the SpaceMouse Enterprise Kit 2 and how to use it in Fusion. It will be available soon. I couldn't live without one. Best, Ben
If i can just share a screenshot on how I precisely copied the Burner, Basket and chamber here, I 'll do so hahaha
Because of your tutorial I am now confident to start 3D modeling and 3D printing.. I just recently bought a Vyper and now searching here to improve my designs.
Thank you so much!

Great idea to show the creation of a product from scratch so that many features are covered. One issue, and I have this with most of these tutorials including from AutoDesk: You show things like creating a rectangle in Sketch mode, but how do you set the dimensions? You go so quickly, cannot see how you do it. And if you want to adjust the dimension later, what do you click on? In regular apps like Shapr3D on the iPad, you just touch the line and an input field opens up. It seems Fusion and other pro CAD apps work in a very different manner. In summary, please go much slower or pause after each operation. :)
Thanks for you comment Alex. If you are new to Fusion, I suggest you watch these short videos first:
academy.autodesk.com/software/fusion-360
Things will make more sense afterwards.
Best, Ben
Dimensioning is key for CAD'ing. Having studied as an engineer, it always bothers me when I see sketches which are not fully defined.
As for your question, (under SKETCH) go to CREATE (dropdown) --> Sketch Dimension. Alternatively, you can just press "D". Everything else should be in the constraints section.
For your first question you press D and click line to add dimention when in sketch mode
Second question. After you add a dimension you see the value popup where u set it. U can double click it and change it. For complex designs use Parameters. Can be located in the modify tab i believe. Look a vid specifiacally on that for it to make sense
Great tutorial, I was able to use it to make my own design within a couple of hours by reverse engineering what you talk about, thanks!
Fantastic! Thanks for watching and your comment. Best, Ben
honestly thank you so much. at the beginning i thought this kettle thing would be pretty hard to make, but you explained it so well, and now after just 12 hours of using fusion, i already am making stuff i had wanted to make long before i knew how to use fusion. Ive tried like 5 tutorials, none of them worked, i got too caught up in the beginning of others
This is exactly what I was hoping for this tutorial - to equip people with the skills they need to start working on their own projects. Thanks for watching and your comment. Best, Ben
@@3DGladiator Thank you so much, now I can actually unleash my ideas instead of just 3d printing stuff other people made! You're awesome
First I'd like to say thank you for taking the time to do this tutorial. It's been very informative and I've enjoyed the process so far in it being my first use of Fusion 360. I'd also like to see if you could help with a part I've been stuck on for a while now.
I wish I could send a video of what I'm doing but I'll try explaining as best as possible.
In working on the lid, I made the initial circle the same size as the outer rim of the collection chamber and followed directions to adjust the shape and make the proper trims around the 1:10:00 mark. When I try to extrude the lid, only the part inside of the rim is able to be extruded. It's as if the original circle I made for the lid caused the rim of the chamber to be cut off.
Thanks for any insight.
Thank you very much for making the best fusion 360 tutorials on youtube

Really liked this video, a good crash course in learning everything to make a model in one hit! I probably should have taken the advice and watched it through and then watched a second time to follow it step by step, but pausing and catching up in Fusion on the first go did work ok.
Absolutely first class training video! So clear and yet so much skill shown which I can keep going back over. Big thanks and respect! Andy

Thanks a million mate.
Happy3dmodeling
Greg.
PS. If you have not done one yet, could you shown us how to copy a sketch from a finished project and paste it into a new component, under it's sketches.
Looking forward to see that one immensely.
Greg
Hi Greg, thank you very much for your comment and your kind words! I'm glad you find it useful. Copying sketches from one document to another is very easy and straightforward:
- enter sketch mode and select the sketch entities you want to copy (double click on a single line segment to select the entire profile for example)
- hit Ctrl+C and exit sketch mode
- create a new design or a new component in the current design and start a new sketch the same way like you would normally do (by selecting an existing face or starting a new sketch one of the three sketch planes)
- and then simply hit Crtl+V to paste the sketch lines. That should do the trick.
Let me know if this works. Thanks for watching my videos. All the best, Ben
Hi, where is the picture of the coffee maker you used? You use it in the video but don't tell us where to pick it up in the description.
I need the image too.
The image that I'm using to trace the handle can be found on the Bialetti website:
www.bialetti.com/it_en/coffee-makers/moka/rainbow-561.html?variant=3 (it looks like they have updated the page and removed some of the product images that were previously available...)
For the logo, I have just searched "Bialetti Logo" on Google and converted a high-res image into a PNG file with transparent background in Photoshop.
Great tutorial, that really helped a lot! Sometimes a little too fast to rebuild it in parallel but with 0.75 speed it was perfect and I managed to follow till the end. Thank you! Coffee bought ☕
This is great to hear! I feel honored that you followed till the end. And thank you very much for the coffee!!! I really appreciate your support. Have fun creating in Fusion. All the best, Ben
I cannot loft the lid. It says: "Cannot create tool body for loft." I have only two profiles selected, the rim around the bottom part and the circle on the offset plane above. I've watched you do it dozens of times replicating everything I see you do. I can't get it to work. Any ideas?
I have the exact same issue
I'm only 15 minutes in, but so far very good. I've watched a few videos by the Fusion people (very hard to follow so I gave up on them) and a couple of other UA-cam ones. Yours is amongst the best. I like how you include little BTW moments as you go that are applicable to what you're doing.
It is a little fast (sometimes have trouble with your accent, but turning on closed captions helps with this) and all the random extra cursor movements and fidgeting with the model are distracting (might be an idea to use a larger, coloured curser). Given it's so long and packed with good info, it might be better to do something like this in a bunch of videos. Good model to demonstrate building.
HI, I have installed a firefox-add-on "enhancer for UA-cam" and change the playspeed how I need it.

I've been having an issue with the projection for the bottom and top chamfer. When I select the edges EXACTLY as you have shown, the purple projection lines aren't placed on the edge going to the center as your projection line is, for some reason (I spent 45 minutes doing it over and over to be sure i wasn't miss clicking and making sure i did the EXACT clicks you did) it gives me a projection line in the middle of the surface instead of the edge, so when i revolve it the very edge is left looking like 8 skinny legs instead of a clean chamfer.
They only step i didn't follow from the video was setting a coincident constraint off a corner to the construction line with the vertical constraint. For some reason it does not allow me to do it, I get an error "failed to resolve, please try revising dimension or constraints.
I am also having the same issue, been spending the better part of a day trying to figure it out. is it a nate thing?
@@natecoombes1296 Lol, apparently! Thanks for the laugh :)
I got stuck here too, but the problem (at least for me) was in not creating the second and third sketches on the correct plane. It's not the same plane as was used in the first sketch.
awsome learning this program at 66 you made it simple to understand I look forward to seeing more

This tutorial blows my mind. EXCELLENT work! I am so happy you take the few seconds to show stuff like the zoom/pan and rotating. Explain stuff and not only how it happens but WHY it happens.

Thank You for a god job! The only remark I would like to do is... In the world of engineering we don't use centimetres, we use millimetres. Thanks again!
Thank you very much for your comment George! I'm glad you like it. You're totally right about the measurements. Centimeters are usually a big no-go.
Coming into this video it was rather challenging. Probably spent like 2 hours for the first 30 minutes.
New user's orientation is different from this tutorial.
Fix this by
1. Select your profile icon right below the X on the top right corner.
2.Click "Prefence"
3. Click "General" tab on the left box
4. Select "Default Modeling Orientation" and change the selection from "Y up" to "Z up"
This will solve any orientation issues.

Great! You're welcome! This sounds like a plane issue indeed. If not otherwise defined, a sketch gets always extruded perpendicular to its plane. Regarding your request, I feel honored, but I have to say no. I'm fully booked and cannot accept any new jobs right now. Thanks for watching!
