![]() ![]() It also includes multi-faceted features such as Design tools, Rendering, Animations, Simulation Testing, Manufacturing (or CAM), and can produce Drawings. ![]() That was a lot of features and may sound overwhelming but don’t worry, we’ll break it down and make it easy to understand. The takeaway is Fusion is powerful but you can use what you want of it and ignore the rest. ![]() Many woodworkers use Sketchup to design and visualize projects. It’s a great way to break into CAD, however, I hope to show you why Fusion 360 is vastly superior. So, why use Fusion 360 instead of Sketchup? This isn’t to say you shouldn’t use it but if you’re looking to boost your skills into a powerful new program, Fusion 360 is where it’s at. In this video we’ll go over what you need to get started making things in Fusion 360 today - like right now.Learn the basic features of Fusion 360, a 3-D design program that will allow you to design objects on a computer screen and turn into items made of metal, wood, plastic or even molds for casting.įusion 360 can generate g-code for computer-controlled tools at BARN including the plasma cutter in the Welding Studio, the milling machine in the Metal Machining Studio, or the CNC router in the Woodworking Studio. You can also use Fusion 360 to design objects for BARN's 3-D printers. Please note: You must bring a laptop computer with a mouse and a working copy of Fusion 360 already downloaded to that computer. ![]() This is critical as no computers are provided, and the design program does not work well with a trackpad. There is no time during the class to download the program. You can download a free trial by clicking here. Look towards the middle of the screen and click on "Create an Account". AutoDesk will send you a confirmation email. Click on the link and go to Download Free Trial. Be sure you choose " Fusion 360 for personal use". ![]()
