Fusion 360 Basics - How to use 2D Engraving (Decorative Wooden Sign)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 янв 2019
- In this video I go over in detail how to use the engrave feature in fusion 360 to create G-code for use with a CNC machine. The project was made with some 1x10 pine glued into a panel and edged with some scrap 2by material for a boarder. The stain was a black poly by minwax and finished with a heavy spray coat of polyurethane.

Thank you so much for the tip of adding the "G0 Z1" line under the G54 command. It was really helpful and will prevent many headaches from now and on (I've been struggling with the scratch on the workpiece for quite a few tries the last couple of days)
This video has saved me at least 3 bottles of Cab Sav in my efforts to get Fusion 360 to engrave - My thanks
Thank you SOOOOO much for this tutorial! I was pulling my hair out wondering why the bit I had selected didn't work. Thanks for explaining that the chamfered bit is the trick!
Looks like your all set up with a custom sign business! It turned out awesome
Nice, looks great! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for making this. Helped me a lot.
Very nice and very well presented.
Thank you, this video is super helpful
Keep the CNC videos coming. Looks like it's working awesome!!
The code edit GO Z1 is key I've been having so many problems trying to change g54, g54,g28 & bit was dragging across board every time thanks so much
THANKS SO MUCH. VERY NICE JOB
Beautiful
You make great videos
Thanks great tutorial
Nice job
That looks like a DrillMaster 1/4" Trim Router I got one for my CNC project and was wondering (if it is) how it's been handling for you?
thanks
Nice project. Thanks for posting it. How are the DIN rails holding up?
So far so good
Where can you buy the bit that you used?
Awesome. Is there anyway in Fusion 360 to modify the gcode preamble so you don't have to hack in that Z move command by hand?
Im sure there is a better way that im not aware of.
Hi There. I am also using Fusion 360, however it only lets me write a .nc file and not a .tap file. Can you help on this
so how do you remove the islands that are left in "W" without changing the tool?
Hi Realy good stuff I've learnt a lot Thanks. Is there any chance you could do a video on modling the sign in autocad and saving it for fusion.
Thanks
I thought of that but not enough people have access to Autocad for it to be worth it. If I used sketchup then I would have done that.
Thanks, a fair comment. I understand it would be quit long as well.
What a very short video on how to emboss text on a flat cube in cad. I can’t find anything out there.
Nice one, thank you. Is there any way to remove the remains on the inside from the letter W?
Hey h4z4rd42, I found a good video describing how to do v-carving with Fusion360 and to get rid of the "islands" inside the carving: ruclips.net/video/nJOz_teWPcM/видео.html Check out the second half of the video at around the 20 minute mark. Cheers.
great video!
do we really have to select every top geometry line like that? what a headache, there must be a select all top function or something...
Yes
If you do your design in fusion 360 or import a DXF or SVG, you can select the sketch plane from the tree list on the left. It can save you time trying to select each contour, but my experience with it has been spotty. It selects everything but sometimes Fusion has a weird interpretation of how it will engrave in between contours, so just double check the simulation to make sure it engraves where you want it to.
So I have the same chop saw as you, and I'm curious if mine is just screwed up or if I'm doing something wrong - when I put something flush against the fence and try to cut, the stock blade will cut everything fine except the smallest corner, the bottom/back furthest from me. usually just throw a couple 2x2 scraps or anything of equal thickness to offset whatever I am cutting, but obviously it would be nice to not have to deal with that. Is that something you ran into ever with this one?
Loosen the fence and move it as far forward as possible then adjust for square.
Very helpful thank you. Does it save the bits you create or so you have to do it each time? I cant find the bits I have edited once I start a new project.
Save them to the library not the project.
@@DIYBuilds Thanks how would you do outlined letters rather than engraved?
Thank you that worked one more question how do you add the border? Was that an svg or did you create it?
Brilliant, if you don’t mind me asking where did you buy your Cnc from
Check out the previous videos... He didn't buy this machine. He built it himself
I built it. A part list is on my website under shop plans
my letters are thicker than my V-Bit Width but dont cut out sections of it and leave it looking weird. How do i get it to cut out all of my text?
Same question. For example, how would you set it up so that the CNC hogged out the remainder of the "W" in "Wright's"? When doing it by hand, I would just go over the inside of the letter with the v-bit until the remaining material was gone.
How could I draw the text and outside decoration, I mean why i could not design and draw them by fusion then make the rest of operations that you did in the video?
sorry i do not catch your words well
You can do all of that in Fusion using sketches under the design section (the main section when you open fusion 360). He's just more comfortable designing in a different software. I will often design in Inkscape to create vector files (like DXF or SVG) and import those into a sketch in fusion 360 onto the stock board I create. There are many correct solutions that are based on personal preference and ability. Good luck!
thx !!!! 7:09 Z up
So I am really new to all this but why did you have to edit the g code before proceeding. Is this for all CNC's or does yours not have a way to set the XYZ manually? Great video otherwise, I liked the frame afterward. Normally I see people cut the whole sign in one go so making a frame second really seems to save machine time.
It's because i don't use home functions so i set an origin manually each time and have to raise the bit up before the first move since fusion doesnt do it
@@DIYBuilds Ah I see, thank you for the explanation.
Make that 6 bottles
Can you take me as an apprentice?
Ya but i don't pay and the hours are terrible.
@@DIYBuilds I am just interested in learning. I don't want payment.
@@DIYBuilds I have some knowledge on CNC router machine operation. I understand the mechanics but the engineering and the circutary is what I want to learn
@@DIYBuilds by the way how much do you sell one if it is possible to get a power supply of 220V. I want to use it in Africa
I hate to be the bearer of bad news but you have a possessive apostrophe on the sign which is incorrect, it should be Wrights.
I was thinking the same thing. Awesome as this video is, every time I saw that apostrophe I made sadface.
It is possessive. It lets you know whose house it is.
@@DIYBuilds I won't disrespect a great video with a punctuation debate, other than to say that you're correct, if "Wright" is a single person, but not if you're referring to the "Wright family", which is to assume more than one person. Either way, it's still a well made sign. :)
@@De1ta lol but i am amped and ready for a great punctuation debate. I stand by my mistake by validating it with it doesn't refer to a people but the house. ;)
@@DIYBuilds HA! Fair enough.
It is not 2D engraving ? ! As far as you use X,Y, and Z it can't be 2D... Right ?
2d refers to the object being engraved.
I think your machine is tramping
Huh?
ruclips.net/video/2n8KcTBNS4U/видео.html see this 10.00
Sorry its tramming
@@harisabdullah576 how can you tell?
@@DIYBuilds see ur vedio at 10.00 u can see tramming on w
Not for a beginner!
Absolutly is for beginners since that was only my first or second project using fusion/cam software.
Ok, what I meant was the fusion explanation was hard to follow. This was the first time I saw Fusion.
