Mastering Autodesk Fusion Edt.2 (2024-2025): 27 Step-By-Step Projects for Beginners in 3D Printing, Prototyping, and Making

Are you ready to 3D model projects in Autodesk Fusion (formerly Fusion 360) and looking for the best place to start learning how? We’ve meticulously designed and tested 28 step-by-step tutorials to help beginners and those looking to level up their skillset a clear path towards mastery. By introducing a few new concepts and ideas precisely as needed, you will not get overwhelmed with too much information and can reliably improve.In addition, we’ve reimagined book learning by incorporating a private online discussion forum linked to each project where you can ask questions, get help from us and the community, and show off what you make. That way, if you get stuck, you’re not left Googling for hours to try and find a solution.We aim to help you bring your ideas and creativity to life by providing an easy-to-follow and enjoyable CAD modeling workbook. Even if you’ve purchased another Fusion 360 CAD book, you will still find value in working through our tutorials.Here’s a small sample of what you’ll learn:Navigating the interfaceTurning 2D sketches into 3D objectsMechanical DesignParametric DesignJointsAssembliesEngineering DrawingsComputer Aided Manufacturing (CAM)RenderingExploded DiagramsExploded AnimationsMotion AnimationExporting STLs for 3D printingExporting GCode for Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) MachiningThis book includes the following:Between 45 - 90 hours of step-by-step practice projectsSupport from the online communityChapter 1: Basics: Introduction to Autodesk FusionThe BasicsClassic DonutSaturn V RocketFinger SurfboardTensegrity TowerCarabinerChapter 2: Mechanical Design: The basics of design using manufacturing principlesPLAY BrickGeocacheⓇ HideChapter 3: Parametric Design: How to customize your designs with dimensions and parametersMetric BoltPrototype DroneChapter 4: Assemblies: How to build your project with multiple partsFire Piston3DP Hot EndChapter 5: Joints: How to join parts for realistic movementPizza CutterTesla TurbineChapter 6: Motion Animation: How to give your entire model movement using motion animationStrandbeestGear TrainRobotic HandChapter 7: Appearances: How to give your 3D models color, texture, and other appearancesAmerican FootballPhone case and standChapter 8: Rendering: How to make your parts look photo-realisticEdison Bulb- A.I.
