Using CONSTRUCTION PLANES in Fusion 360 - 8 Kinds of Construction Planes
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 июл 2024
- In today’s video, we’re going to check out some of the tools contained inside of Fusion 360 for creating construction planes inside of your models.
These planes can be used basically as guides for object creation inside of Fusion 360.
Let’s take a look at some of our options for different kinds of construction planes that we can use inside of Fusion 360.
The first, and simplest, is the offset plane - you can use this to set a guide plane a set distance from an object inside of your model. For example - say you wanted to add a recess in this object a few inches down - you could create your offset plane at that distance, then use it as a sketch plane to sketch your recess.
The second option - plane at angle, allows you to create a plane at an angle to an edge that you select. This can be very helpful for creating objects that intersect with other objects inside of Fusion 360
The tangent plane option allows you to create a plane at a tangent to a curved face. This can be really helpful for adding geometry to a curving surface. By setting a reference plane, you can align your tangent plane with another face - you can use this as a base for your tangent plane, or then adjust this by another number of degrees.
The midplane will find the central plane between two different faces. Note that this will only work on flat faces, but can be used to find the difference from an angle perspective between two planes.
Plane between two edges allows you to create a plane that runs between two straight edges. This can be really helpful when you don’t know the angle that you want your plane to run along, but you do have some reference edges.
Plane between three points works very similarly to plane between two edges, but is a much better fit during times that you don’t have two edges to work with.
Plane tangent to face at point allows you to use a reference point to set the angle of a tangent plane on a curved surface.
Finally - plane along path allows you to create a plane perpendicular to a path. This can be especially useful if you want to create a profile that’s extruded along a path with the sweep tool, and also opens up some interesting options with the loft tool as well.

Happy Monday everyone! Let me know some of the ways you've used construction planes in the comments below!
A very helpful video. For each of the types of construction planes, you've covered enough detail to understand how to operate the software feature, plus provided a motivating example. Good work!
Your tutorials are really awesome. So clear, concise and to the point. Thank you so much.
Thank you for simplifying planes, I have heard and seen planes in other tutorials as a quick 'just create a plane' then they add whatever to it.
Generally why and what type of plane is not mentioned.
This has enabled me to correct 'guesswork' in some of my models to make them more accurate.
Just what I was looking for. As always, a very well explained and to the point tutorial.
I just want to say these fundamental functions are must to learn before become really good at fusion 360 and thank you for your help, Justin.
Thanks for this video, this is probably the most underrated tool from the software, i've been using it for HardSurface 3D designs and honestly i was always struggling to make stuff in a perfect degree in direction to a 2-faces location and such, this is really helpfull. Thanks for sharing.
I realize some of the video's are older but I have learned s much from all of these. Pretty good pace, not a lot of wasted time. direct and to the point. thank you so much for your help. I will be asking you one question if I can not figure it out. Again Thank you.
Beautifully done!! straight to the point!
This was outstanding and I learned a ton that I didn't know already. It was also efficient and smooth. Great job!
Please keep them coming in 2021. Excellent style.Thanks
I love a tutorial that gets to the point quickly . thanks
I love a tutorial that gets to the point quickly. Wonderful work and you earned a new subscriber!
Awesome, thank you!
WOW - I learned a bunch from this. Thank you!
Hell yea man! Appreciate these videos! 👏🏻👏🏻
Justin, great work! You unlock my understanding of the construction plane! Thank you!
They've very powerful!
Great job!.... I learned a lot and you made it easy!... thank you, joe.
Awesome video! This blew my mind, my Fusion game is changed forever, thank you!
Thank you, didn't know about all of these.
Thanks for doing this video it’s really great and I’ve learned quite a lot keep on doing them you’re awesome man
so helpful! i just started using Fusion 360 and i look forward to all of your vids dude!
Very well done, thank you for your time and help.

This was huge man Thanks
Learned something new today (plane at angle!! super helpful!!!!) Thanks dude!
Incredible video! Thank you 🙏🏻
Thanks this video was really helpful!
Thank you so much, IDK how I was able to make anything without knowing about this.
Very Well Explained, THANK YOU!
Straight to the point. You are good.
Very helpful, thank you so much
Thanks for the clear explanation of the Planes Tool :-)
Excelent, short and clear!
Very helpful! Thank you.
Another great video. Thanks. Gave me so many great ideas on streamlining my workflow and design methods.
thanks Justin. Great video
Awesome, thanks!
thank you very much, i leanrd a lot today
Well thought out video. and appropriate .
Good explanation, direct to the points with clear easy words, I raise the hat for you.
Thank you!

Hey really cool. Thank you
Useful. Damn. Useful. Thanks.
nice... thank you :)
Thanks this really helped me get past a brick wall I hit on my first project!
Fantastic video!
OMG this channel is so damn helpful. I am coming from Shapr3d and Siemens Parasolid. fusion is just a whole different animal to get use to. your quick tutorials are helping me get running in Fusion 360
Amazing!
Was helpful
Awesome tutorial ❤❤❤
amazing
great tutorial
thanks
Thanks a lot dear for this wonderful video🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝
great video, friend,, really useful information are here. Pls, carry on making this kind of video for us.
DUDE STILL HELPING!
Your video explained planes in lay mans terms......thankyou, i learnt a lot in those 12 minutes!!
Liked and subscribed.
Very good!!!
Thanks very much! Glad you liked it! :)
Well done.
Thanks!
Great work very helpful
Could you please make a video about numbers on a flat plane such as watch face with 12 numbers also Roman numbers if possible I thank you
Easy fast and straight to business
the last one was interesting. I was wondering how to make plane at verticles and it apply this way
Wonderful! I have created planes, but could not draw on them. Now< I see the magic icon located just below "solid" which you selected./ I have spent hours trying to do this. I am off to the races now!!
Hi Justin
I am amazed of your presentation
But I don't understand what is the difference done by plane along path, in the time the sketch drawn in the perpendicular plane gets the target???
Great share - planes are essential to designing anything real(!)
2 problems I need help with.
1. Sometimes the plane orange representation rectangle gets created REALLY small - and I have to zoom REALLY far in - like, comically - to find it later on.
Also, plane is created way off to the side.
2. If you are working on one of the three major planes, and use orbit to look around at your design, you can just click the magic cube in the upper right to get the view back to a major plane.
When you orbit around on a new whacky plane, how do you get the view to be "normal" to the plane, i.e. 90 degrees?
Any help appreciated.
really good video; I'm not sure how to add another sketch for the circular part, I went back to the beginning to add it in already used the control key on both shapes to extrude them. before I extruded one shape, then other one disappears???? guess I'm still too new to figure that out and why it does that.
I have a seat for a chair that I am drawing in 360...how would you draw a complex angle? Where (for instance) a hole needs to be drilled for a spindle that angles back and to the left (think of a chair back for a Windsor chair). Basically, can you draw a angled plane on one axis, then change the angle for another axis of the same plane?
Great job🎉is there a way to create a plane off a cylinder to a square at a different height?
Thanks you cured me of tinkercad in like 2 episodes
How would you section a circular object axially with a construction plane?
I created a plane at a unique angle, and now I want an orthogonal view facing the plane in my Drawing. When I add Base Views to the Drawing, I can only select standard orientation angles like Top, Bottom, SW Isometric, etc. Can I create a drawing that squarely "looks at" the plane?
I'm trying to figure out how to slant then ends of a cylinder. Is the construction plane method the best way to do that?
Hi, is it possible to create a plane through an axis and a plane? it is a standart feature in most cad softwares but I can't find it in fusion...
how do you get the real dimension view of the offset plane at 3:35 ? thx
really nice tutorial!! wow! how great you explain all! thank man! here you got my comment, like and subscribe!
I want a plane construction method that requires specifying only two points. Fusion would then create a plane along the implicit line connecting the two points and then allow me to specify the angle the plane makes with those two points. This would have come in handy in so many instances where I needed a plane but none of the existing construction methods were just right for what I wanted to do.
how would one create a plane of 2 angles?
like 2 layers of angles.
im trying to design some handlebars and ive got it done in autocad lt but im having trouble bringing it to life in 3d form.
the handlebar ends rise by 10 degress but are also pulled towards the rider by 10 degrees.
how would one do this on a 3d program?
ive got to ask how did you figure all of this out? Modeling can be very complicated. its like second nature to you. did you self teach or go to school for it?
but how do you find the centre points of the angeled planes? i need to make a tube with an agle, but when i make the angled plane there is no mid point.
hi, i'm trying to attach a plane through 3 points on a scanned mesh and i am having mix results, 3 weeks ago it allow me to do it but now wont.
Thanks for the good advice. I'm trying to figure out how to re-use a Construction Plane multiple times. When I create a plane, and then put a Sketch on it, the plane disappears and can't be reused. I'd like to save a Plane and give it a name so I can use it multiple times.
It sounds like a timeline problem. You can't Fusion 360 won't let you reference things in the future for stuff made in the past.

Hi.
Just learned something new today,but my problem right now is that I don´t know how to move an object in a angle plane.Let´s say that you have five holes in a line on a cylinder at an angle of 45 °.Now you need to to put them in the right place in terms of a specific measurement in between them.That is my problem today :/

Great content. You went a little too fast for me when you got to plane along a path.
You look like Mark Zuckerberg's cousin who is really into guns and fitness.
Anyway, thanks for the video :)
still cant make construct plane in mid cylyndrical
Whoahhh blown away by this awesome tutorial! Can you say…. SUBSCRIBE?
