I'm really fascinated by this tutorial, has an ease without being too fast. One of the best tutorials on Fusion 360, I have to check out the others too, Thanks for a great job.
Thanks again for your comment and for watching my videos. I'm glad you also find this series helpful. Unlike the step by step tutorial I published last week, the goal of this series is to give you an overview on how to approach a more complex project in Fusion.
I had dabbled with Fusion360 and looked at other videos, but yours combines the use of tools and process that really helped me better grasp efficient approaches to designing. I really like the way you used and explained the timeline as it now makes sense. I will be watching the rest of the build videos. Thanks for taking the time, steps, and effort to make and share these awesome videos.
I love your video about designing a track, I was so excited when I completed the link but my low end PC wouldn’t allow me to do the pattern part. Gotta save I guess
Thanks for watching! Yes, the last operation is quite recourse intensive. Actually, Fusion is not really made for such things. If you would have to deal with super complex designs consisting of hundreds and hundreds of parts, you would have to switch to Inventor. Have a great and creative day. Best, Ben
thanks for the tuto. It seems so easy. I'm designing a tank too and i fail my tracks. I design one element from the track and when I realize a pattern on path, the elements seem to be perfectly connected. But when I click on OK, the 41 elements needed don't follow the path but stay all together. Any idea? Thanks.
Hi sir, i did everything exactly same until 26:00, but when I confirmed the Pattern on Path, the result become a ghost-like (?) shape. I couldn't find any solution on the internet, what should I do?
Welcome aboard! I just want to make you aware that I'm not going to publish any new Fusion videos on the channel. It' all Crypto from now on. 😎 Thanks for watching. Best, Ben
Thanks for your interest. Unfortunately, technical drawings of the vehicle are not available. The only thing you can find online are very good blueprints derived from the miniature model and some photos. This is why I have purchased the miniature set in the first place and took measurements. A big shout out again to the creators of the set, they did a fantastic job! Best, Ben
Hey good video, I have a couple of questions. How do you get the right length for the final track so it fits the wheels? and how is the mating process between the wheels and the track done?
Thanks for watching my videos and your question. If you don't know the exact dimensions of the single link or the total length of the track, some guesswork is required. Focus on the single component first and duplicate it from time to time while you are building it to make sure everything fits together. If you create the vehicle according blue prints, you can simply position a circle for the drive sprocket and another one for the idler wheel on a sketch plane. Then connect them with a closed profile and measure its length. When you know the approximate length, divide it by the distance between pin to pin-hole of the single link. The number you get is the total amount of track links you need to complete chain. Hope this helps. Best, Ben
Yes, this is correct. I was modifying the links a little bit for the final version. As I was only working with reference images and the miniature model when building the tracks, it can still be that the distance between the guide horns is slightly off. Thanks for watching and your comment. Best, Ben
i love tutorials that don't treat the audience like idiots, thanks for this man
You are very welcome. Thanks for watching! Best, Ben

Your videos and used of commands is helping me make the transition from CAD to Fusion 360. Thank you for your tutorials.
Very nice explanation. Good job!!
Thanks for this awesome tutorial!
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching. Best, Ben
Thanks very much!!! If possible, I hope there will be more 1/35 military 3D tutorial, like turret, wheels..etc.
Great work!!
oh very very nice video!!
Thank you very much!
Awesome 🏆🏆🏆! Thank you Ben 🙂 !
Hey Josh, thanks for your comment! I'm glad you like it 😍

Thanks for your comment. I'm glad you like it! Many more to come. I'm almost done with the video for day 12.

What's the mechanism for keeping the bolt from falling out

Superb video.
Sub'd so I can binge watch your Fusion 360 videos.

@@3DGladiator You did a great job.
Good luck with your future endeavors.
Hope you get rich beyond your wildest dreams.
Cheers.
can you provide us the technical drawing of all parts of tank i mean dimension

why i end up with m4 sherman style when i try to make my own but with 2 sprocket LUL
I just had a look at the M4 Sherman, what a beast! Are you placing a drive sprocket at the front and the rear?
the guide horns are further apart than that. Did you get any original data on the links?
Yes, this is correct. I was modifying the links a little bit for the final version. As I was only working with reference images and the miniature model when building the tracks, it can still be that the distance between the guide horns is slightly off. Thanks for watching and your comment. Best, Ben
