Thanks! I'm really happy with it. I've been searching for a CAD software to use on this channel that all my viewers can have access to, and I think this is the one! Do you work on F360 or just a fan?
I've only tried sketch up for about 10 minutes and I got stuck (probably my fault). Maybe I'll give it a shot but from what I've seen so far Fusion 360 feels just like a professional CAD software even though it's free. It allows me to model with a design tree "parametric modeling" or without "direct modeling". Also I've seen videos of people making really beautiful organic shapes with it. Someone else modeled a mechanical watch, so I know it can handle large assemblies. This was my first time using it and it was easy to pick up. I'm pretty excited about it. Before this I used DesignSpark Mechanical which was pretty awesome and also free, but could only do direct modeling and would start to get sluggish after about 10 parts in an assembly, and the parts were a bit difficult to manage.
Love how you're using Fusion 360!

+Normal Universe yup...on the fusion 360 team. Glad to hear you're liking the software.
Awesome! I'm really excited to see what else is in the program. So far the UI is great. I might make my first attempt at curvy organic shapes.
You ever tried SketchUp? Just curious if you did an A/B comparison between CAD tools and/or why you ended up choosing Fusion 360.
