Nice one Kevin. Keep them videos coming mate. Cheers, Aaron.
cleared up some stuff I didn't understand, Thanks
Good. I love to hear about things you guys don't understand and use those ideas for future videos. So don't be shy with those questions.
Kevin, this is exactly the type of video that is so very helpful. A deep dive into the linking parameters would be great.
Good. Thanks for letting me know. I've stated making up a file that I think will clear things up. It will take a bit to make sure I've got it set up so it shows like I want.
Great info, very helpful!
Glad you got some use out of this one. It's been a while since I made it.
I learned 11 new things in 3:34 minutes so far....nice
Thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you too
Nice work, lots of information in short period of time and fairly straightforward to understand
Hi Jeff. I'm glad you found it useful and were able to follow along. Thanks for watching.
I just bought a low-end (but cool) 3D printer. I'm never gonna machine anything, but I'm coming to your videos for the Fusion 360. I suppose I have reached a level of knowledhge of Fusion where your videos provide the "next step", so they are appropriate and useful in that way. In addition to that your video adds to my knowledge, but also my understanding of how Fusion can be used.
Brilliant! thank you very much
Well, brilliant might be stretching it haha I'm glad you liked it and thanks for watching.
Thx for another great video. Please do the deep dive on the linking tab.
Thanks for the Video Kevin. Like the others stated, it is very helpful and a great learning example. Also, I have interest in learning more about drawing the Thread tools for use in the library. I did see on the Harvey website that the Thread Mill .DXF File is provided which provides the tool outline.
Kevin great video as always. Have a question. For the second operation any reasons why you didn’t use the stock from previous setup?
Hey Marcelo. Mostly because I can’t shift the part in the stock and I want my z to be on the bottom face of the part. So I could have certainly done that since I chose a model box point.
I’m hoping that bringing the stop from op1 to op2 keeps improving. It’s not really up to my liking yet.
And you were doing so well!! You started with the 22mm dimension, then you started the weird stuff 😂😂😂
Really good video, lots of great info, but 9.5/10 because of the strange numbering system 😉😁
I can’t believe I was forced to use a metric number in a video. Don’t worry, I’ll be taking a shower soon to try to feel clean again! 😂

Hi Kevin, awesome video! I’ve always chosen to Roll around corner instead of sharp corner. Isn’t that type of tool path hard on the machine because it forces a dead stop in order to change direction? Or does the code decelerate it somehow?
I agree that roll around corner is typically better. I couldn’t get it to start where I wanted with roll around corner. In this case, I wasn’t too worried about the starting and stopping aspect of the toolpath as it wasn’t moving super fast to begin with.
I don't think you should ever apologize for working in 25.4mm units! :)
Well, it makes them feel a little better when I do haha
Hi Kevin,
Great teaching vid. Mate👍
Bit too fast for my tired ‘ol brain… but hey… that’s what replay is for eh? 🤣🤣
Looking forward to the X7 ‘make’.
Regards
Robert
PS What post processor did you use?
Hey Robert. It's a challenge between going to fast and too slow. Hopefully you were still able to follow.. I'm using the post processor the George sent me. I think the one from Autodesk with the help of George and Peter will be available soon from within Fusion if it isn't already. The machining video is out. Sorry it is a bit dark. I'm working to try to fix that.
Hi Kevin, I don’t find any thread mills in any of the tool libraries in Fusion. Can you show us how to add them?
Hi Bill. Maybe that would be a good video for creating a form tool. You can do it through the tool definition but the threadmills you generally buy don’t match the way threadmills are defined in Fusion.
