I'm a bit confused with the formular
ОтветитьReally great 👍
Thank you so much
I’m about to do some woodworking projects around my workshop, couple of cabinets and so. Started to learn fusion 360 as a hobby, but now i can link it to woodworking. I can digitally build my workshop cabinets, wich is really useful. I really want to build a cabinet with parametric modelling, so i could change the number of drawers and so…if i have to build another cabinet, i can easily modify the parameters instead of a whole new project. it’s still gonna be tricky, but your video helped a lot, thank you!
ОтветитьI am using fusion for a model as my masters thesis. Thanks to your videos I have to redo everything, because I realized how shitty I designed everything. But in the long run the parametric designs will save me a lot of time. Great tutorial, thanks!
Ответитьquick question. I want to sweep a sketch around another sketch (a rectangle). I want the size of that rectangle to be parametric. However when I change the size of the rectangle, the sweeping profile doesnt come with it. Hope that makes sense. Trying to figure it out
ОтветитьReally great video! I'm new-ish to Fusion360, and have been wanting to do my own variation of Gridfinity. This video helped a lot
ОтветитьNew to Fusion360, INCREDIBLE!
ОтветитьThis is great, thank you
Ответитьexcellent
Ответитьvery helpful! Thanks so much!
ОтветитьSooo great tutorial! That what i wanted.
ОтветитьI’ve been using fusion for a while now and use it at work and have tried parametric modeling before and make a right mess of it. This is clear and concise. Thanks for the tutorial.
ОтветитьParameters are the best. Fusion Parameters are wonky at times. Still the best feature of parametric design.
ОтветитьNice video, how it works when you want a copy of the object in the same scene with different values?
ОтветитьThanks mate this was a very helpful video.
ОтветитьUnfortunately this only works while the project remains in the cloud. Exporting it destroys the relationships between sketches and bodies which makes this feature useless.
ОтветитьDespite you saying to think like an engineer, you're clearly not an engineer. An engineer wouldn't have had internal spacing or external spacing. A machinist is only interested in where the centres of the holes are. They only want the offset from the edge to the centre of the first hole, and the spacing between hole centres. They will use edge detection to find the stock's edge, then measure from that point to the centre of the first hole, and then use the hole spacing to offset to the next. This also makes the calculations easier: Shell_Y = 2 * Edge_Distance + Hole_Spacing * (Rows - 1). This is why patterns are specified in terms of the distance between centres, so your pattern spacing would just be Hole_Spacing. For design purposes, you might want to define Edge_Distance = External_Spacing + Hole_Diameter / 2, but more likely you'd define it in terms of the hole diameter, e.g. Hole_Diameter * 1.5, so the margin is always a hole diameter, whatever the size of hole, guaranteeing a well-proportioned piece.
You don't need parentheses around things multiplied together. It's called operator precedence, and you should have learned it in basic algebra at elementary school (I was 8 when our school first taught algebra). You don't say (2*a) + (3*b), you say 2*a + 3*b. But if you wanted three lots of a + b, you'd say 3 * (a + b) because + and - apply after multiplication and division. You can of course use extra parentheses, but unnecessary parentheses usually make the expression harder to read.
Why are you defining the pieces using dimensions first, and then converting them? The whole point of parametric modelling is that you have conceived the model parametrically. The dimensions are the parameters - from the start. If you find yourself converting dimensions to parameters, you've not thought about your model parametrically, and you're liable to introduce errors because of it.
If you'd patterned the holes as a feature instead of a face, your chamfering would automatically have repeated, without having to go back in the timeline to add in the chamfer.
All that being said, I appreciate anyone taking the effort to introduce people to the benefits of parametric modelling. It forces you to think clearly, and logically about the design, and helps avoid many of the pitfalls of ad hoc modelling, where they break and/or look ugly as soon as you try to change anything. It also means you're considering the possibility of your model being flexible from the start.
Nice Video. Can you explain, why the pattern is not done inside the scetch?
ОтветитьI really like these videos where you explaine these design approaches and ways to design something wery efficient.
I mean mostly of specific content in this video where already in my portfolio, but strong video anyway.
Thanks for your well and understandable designt videos.
Thank you for the video...Is there any possibility to load all the user parameters to a xml file and run it through command line
ОтветитьGreat explanation
ОтветитьWhile watching your video (really enjoyed it) was motivated to ask you a question about using a multiplier. Let's say you have a hinged box (yup I am a 3D printer hobbyist) could you just add a parametric multiplier into the into the parameters. Then you could take all dimensions of the hinged box and just say for example apply a, multiplier = 2 and increase that multiplier = 4. Would that work?
ОтветитьThanks for the video. I'm modelling portholes from a long established company that built the Titanic portholes in Liverpool. This is a great video, if you want to model several scaled models at once. Bring on the CAM for all the hole drilling. Keep up the great content!
ОтветитьThanks, This is best yet fo my understanding
ОтветитьGreat Video!
Very well explained.
I have watched a ton of 360 videos and this one was done very well. Thanks Larry
ОтветитьVery nice tutorial! I really like the short clear explanations with no skipped steps. I'm a new subscriber and will be going through your catalog as I try to come up to speed on Fusion 360 which I just bought a couple of days ago...
Nit Picking: I had to grit my teeth to not say outloud: "Use (Internal_Spacing*(Rows-1)) instead of what you have. The way you wrote it relies on the order of operations (multiplication happens before subtraction) so it does, of course, work. But for those whose math skills are a little rusty, that may puzzle them a little. And I try to always use parentheses and don't rely on order of operations, both for total clarity and because you never know when there will be bugs in proper order of operations. Also, it seems more natural to me to think of Rows as being parallel to the x-axis and Columns parallel to the y-axis. I think when I model this exercise I'll use something like 'x_holes' and 'y_holes' to make clear the direction and entirely avoid the somewhat arbitrary assignment of rows vs. columns.
[Good thing that so far I have nothing with an a-axis...]
Thank you for a very good tutorial.
I was aware of parametric design but never actually used it in my designs. Just like Falcon Lover in the previous post, I use fusion 360 for designing 3D printed parts. A problem when printing accurately dimensioned parts using FDM method is that external and internal dimensions change when printed parts cool down and shrink. You end up with ill-fitting parts, holes that are too small or in the wrong place ...etc. My solution has, up to now been to scale the models up by some 0.5% in the slicer to compensate for shrinkage. That works in many cases but not always, scaling changes some geometry relationships, also amount of shrinkage is different depending on the dimensions of a feature.
I now use parametric design and include scaling when dimensioning critical features. Works like a dream.
What an amazingly capable platform Fusion 360 is.
This looked like witchcraft to me at first. Then I understood it. So, there's no need to verify if you float or not. Great explanation on something I've struggled with. Thank you!
Ответить- Nice vid. Thx.
- Quick question: 'Type': 'Faces' vs. 'Features': When/Why?
- BTW, I typically use 'Features', because it's only 'Type' that support 'Compute Option: Optimized'.
- So, I'm interested to get your thinking/insight.
- TIA...
Okay, but there is no parameters window? There is no "fx" button on the toolbar, not sure why you would not mention that it is not the default to have it there
ОтветитьVery well done
ОтветитьNice video 😊
❓ How to make parameters bound to individual components?
E.g. a component with 3 defining parameters. And when I import it into an other file multiple times I want to adjust those 3 parameters for each "copy" of the component individually without loosing the link to the main component. (Because of when I want to add features or bodies to it.)
I really hope there would be something like "properties" for a component to change those parameters.
That was very cool
ОтветитьHi Austin,
Excellent video! clear and to the point. From now on I will absolutely try to make any model parametric. I am too frustrated about broken models!
I've been a hobbyist Fusion user for 2-3 years now, just for designing simple things for 3D printing, and I can't believe I've never tried parametric modelling, it's truly the power play to making better fusion models and saving time and effort long term!
You've got me hooked, and now I'm addicted.
I'm going to struggle attempt the Fusion Guitar build guide to ultimately become better and making even more awesome thing's in Fusion.
Thank you for showing me the smarter side of modelling.
Austin Shaner, more like Awesome Shaner. Great videos! Learned more about patching from you than the rest of YT. Much appreciated!
ОтветитьI just discovered your channel. I like the train of thought you laid out at the very beginning and the very end of the video, regarding design intent. Starting with a chicken scratch sketch and then going back and remaking it and parameterizing is how I model too.
I have two pieces of constructive criticism:
1) Limit the use of construction geometry (favoring sketch constraints instead); and
2) The metric system. Inches belong in a museum. It's still possible to enter necessary imperial values even when modeling in metric.
Excellent video!
ОтветитьKudos man! You are a natural when it comes to doing that kind of videos!
ОтветитьNice video, well explained with minimal guff and maximal useful content. Keep these coming.
