Hi Lars! Hi all! I just wanted to point out a neat trick you could have used at 12:52. Start by selecting the horizontal constraint and then you hover over the center of the line holding the shift key. This will allow you to select the midpoint of the line. Next, you continue with selecting the origin. This way, you skip all the part where you have to draw a line and has a bonus, you keep a more uncluttered sketch. Hope this helps! ;)
Thanks once again Lars - Have a good week in my favourite US city ,San Diego. Next week is BETT UK Education show in UK so I'm glad I wont be missing any of your livestreams but I am sure I will be talking about them with many of my F360 colleagues at the BETT show.
Thanks again Lars. Nice to know about the Web feature. This is me being pedantic, but during the 'box' part I was thinking "now, when is Lars going to turn that hexagonal cutout into a round one and how will he do it?". I guessed the only way would be to create a temp cylinder.
Hi mark scheiner Thank you for watching! It is a Haas Simulator. Mostly used in classrooms settings where you can take the code generated with CAM in Fusion and test it vs. going to a CNC machine and run the code. Best, Lars
Hey Lars can you cover functions of mirror and holes? I haven't been able to find good information on these nor have I been able to figure them out. Thanks
Hi Chris H Thank you for watching! You should be able to. You can email me the file and I can try on my end. Or for a quicker response, try to forum lars.christensen@autodesk.com
Hi, you used the imported screwdriver to cut out from the foam, but that would have cut without tolerance. Is there an easy way to 'inflate' the cut to add a tolerance?
Hi John Morrison Thank you for watching! That is a great question. You could have scaled the screwdriver or just use the press/pull "Q" to offset the single faces. BEst, Lars
Lars Christensen Can't seem to convert to Brep that way. Do you need to import, upload to cloud, open from data panel and then convert to Brep? Thanks again for all your help.
@@cadcamstuff I followed the lesson in the link you posted and was able to convert using Mesh to BRep but Im still unable to use it as a tool. For some reason I cannot select the converted body in the combine menu.
Many thanks and you did it even without to measure any one bit, awesome. Thanks in sharing this awesome technique, appreciate.

Hi Iain Duncan Thank you for watching! Enjoy the show!!!
Very nice Lars. I'm learning a little more each time. :-)
That is awesome to hear Ron Floyd .Thank you for watching the videos
Awesome video Lar's I'll have to design a box now that you've shown the way to do it. Thanks 👍
That is awesome to hear Bob Young .Thank you for watching the videos
Great video! Building cases is one of the things I do most, and this method is faster and easier than building it from scratch.
That is awesome to hear proximityzero .Thank you for watching the videos

Great videos, I'm hooked on Fusion360 now.....
That is awesome to hear DomeShining .Thank you for watching the videos
Great video as always Lars. Have a great time next week.
Hi Spike Kent Thank you for watching! ANd Thank you!!
Have a great week!
Great webcast Lars. Quick question. Whats the radio looking device on the wall behind you?

good video i have learned a lot today.thanks

Hi Wayne L Thank you for watching!
I would be happy too! I'll add it to the list
Excelent!
Thank you Tim Briggs
Lars that's funny....if you don't get it the second time just get a drink!
:-) Thank you for watching
Lars Christensen thank you for the videos I have learned so much from you.
I've tried to open a .dwg file created on AutoCad on Fusion 360 but i couldn't. Something I'm missing?

It would be really nice if Fusion could add an 'offset' to the cut operation when using 'combine'!
You could scale the model that must fit in the case before you create your box. Or am i wrong on this?
Hey Lars! When I import a stl file it seems to scale it up 10x. Probably a noob mistake. Thanks.

One topic to add, I just tried the combine method but its not working, could it be because i imported a mesh body (.STL)?
Hi Thomas Bauer Thank you for watching!
Yes, you will have to modify your stl to a solid:

How can import an step file to an existing file where I have a model?
Hi david j Thank you for watching!
Upload it into the data panel. Then, Right-click and insert into the current design
Thank you
