Hi Arnold, I lost my way a little and decided to deviate from you to solve the problem. I was getting dotted line circles and after looking at it I hadn't turned off the construction line afrer I had to extend the centre line. Ended up great. I am really enjoying these sessions. Cheers - you are a good teacher. Ian
Yes George, these are the standard classroom “tortured blocks” which all engineering students have massacred ever since drawing boards were lined up in classrooms. The tools change but the subject matter stays the same although there is a danger of being left behind if we only focus on mechanical components now that nearly every product these days is an electro-mechanical device. No doubt you’ve seen the electronics workspace in Fusion 360, that’s important and I’m anxious to get on with that whole side of it.
Brilliant tutorial . You make it so easy to do. Thank you so much for the series. I am learning this through the Covid 19 lockdown period in South Africa.
I'm following along the tutorial. I found that a slightly quicker way of doing the lines, is to go from circumference to circumference, then adding tangent constraints for the start points. Saves you the extra work of cleaning up those extra bits of the lines.
Fantastic work, I didn't go to bed last night!! The simplicity and straight to the point approach is just brilliant. But one thing to mention as I do not know the end results beside me getting a new skill. On the last video, all these parts come together? (I hope that makes sense for you on how to take these tutorials to a different level). I just hope that all parts will come together and be something! Many thanks for taking your time on doing this.
Thanks ServSwift, you've earned an afternoon nap! No, the parts don't assemble but I'm working on intermediate tutorials where you'll be assembling things, that's your next mission (should you choose to accept it).
That was an interesting way to do it. I will have to go and try it that way. I used the line tool to make the outside. Used the sketch fillet tool on the centre two 25R. Then just a construction line through the centre to line the model up. Thanks
There are many ways to get a good result. If you can do it in more ways than one then you're ahead of most people. Practise my way too in order to get the idea of controlling tangencies and symmetry.
Hi Arnold, awesome videos, my son is in a university studying mechanical engineer and recently I bought three feet by three feet CNC machine with the idea of making myself small projects with wood and for him to get some hands-on practice with fusion 360. Since he is at the university, he is far from me in knowledge, to don't make this comment to long, my question is, are you planning to do G code videos in the future. The first time I saw your videos, (I think was the number six) I went back to your channel, start with the oldest and now I am on the number ten. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Filiberto😀👍👍🧡
It sounds like you and your son have plenty to talk about. Those little extra projects will be a really good boost for his understanding of the university course. Too many graduates are good at maths but still can't make anything. CNC is definitely on my ToDo list but first I've got some really nifty things to try on a 3D printer.
This is not the way I thought you were going to do it. I thought you were going to make the internals and offset the perimeter to make the outer lines. This is the beauty of watching others. You see things you haven't even thought of.
Hi, thank you for the great tutorials. Hopefully you could add a simple CNC examples at one point. Due to the some CNC machines have no limit switches is not practical to use the origin inside the model. However I have been unsuccessful in moving an already created model anywhere else. I believe it's because the coincident constraints that keep piling up where some lessons add more than 5 constraints in the origin due to different constructs like centered rectangles etc. In order to do the move I believe we need to remove the constraints but the interface does not seems to allow to give info about these constraints piled out in the same position so it's not possible to delete the proper one. Do you have any remedy for that? Thank you for your great work, Adrian
Thanks Adrian, I'll be collaborating with a friend who is a CNC whiz but not for some time yet. As for re-orienting a model please find John Hackney's Channel on YT and search his channel for a video on 'the Align tool'. I'll eventually do one but his is excellent and will tide you over for the time being.
Where did you get the diameters of 50 and 30s off the start? How would know that I needed those from looking at the diagram? When I tried to do it on my own without watching the video I ran into the problem of getting the outside measurements correct.
Well WiW, its all about the difference between a radius and a diameter. You'll see the R for radius on some of those dimensions and the diameter symbol on others. A radius is half a diameter which trips up plenty of folks, and then to make it twice as confusing, there is a common engineering feature where a hole in a filleted part has a radius half of the radius of the outline as you see at either end of this example. When one is dimensioned as a radius and the other as a diameter (according to conventional practise) you have a recipe for a puzzle. Sorry guys, its funny in the classroom but I know this is just frustrating for you.
@@Rahmancarr Hmmm, Rocky, I want the drawings to be completely authentic but there will be some way to give the hint without putting it on the drawing. In the revised version I'll state it in the video.
The normal way that the line sketch tool works is that you click and move the mouse, click again and move the mouse. The line tool stays active and assumes that you will draw another line. If you come back to the first point where you started it will close the loop and stop giving you another line to place. If you want to stop drawing lines you can hit the escape key but it will drop you right out of the line tool, you have to click on the tool again to restart it. The green tick allows you to stop drawing lines without dropping out of the line tool and having to restart it.
Its a bit of a puzzle Gzegorz, can you expand on your question a bit? Notice that I drew the circles the wrong size on purpose and then constrained them for a good result.
I like your videos really good tutorial in my case I have to say no to the software 360 way out of my rich and the free hobby version just got to greedy
1miltond I've dealt with that objection here: ruclips.net/video/FlrpyzquSQQ/видео.html My question is, "What are you missing since the license changes?" If you're really a hobbyist you've still got the best software that there is for free.

@@ianlangley987 you’re getting through them now
I remember drawing something like this years ago..sure makes it easy and fast with a good teacher..thank you Arnold, love your teaching style!

Good on you Terrance, press on!
I concur. I did it first without seeing the video, and was amazed at the use of the tangent and the trim 3:44.
Great stuff again Arnold :) Done 4 - 10 tonight and it is getting easier - I can just about keep up with you now :) Cheers!
Good work rgv

Great tip!
So, you add the tangent constraint on the circle before adding the lines to eliminate the extra bits?

Just happy to have you come by smith-m

No worries!
Learning a lot thank you!
Good on you Matt. What will you do with Fusion 360?

All going well so far, I’m a slow learner, but this is going well thank you.
Good on you Damien, Its nice to meet another slow learner! I get there by just plugging away at it.
This is not the way I thought you were going to do it. I thought you were going to make the internals and offset the perimeter to make the outer lines. This is the beauty of watching others. You see things you haven't even thought of.
There are many ways to get a good result, Midgetbar maid. With experience you'll probably be able to do it that way also. I hope I can get you going.

@@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360 thank you for the quick response!
@@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360 Not fair! At least give a hint on the engineering drawing!

What does the green tick do? Is it just to return? 2:10

Very easy to follow - thank you just trying to download drugs
Hmmm, keep trying Colin.
why you do something what is not marked on sketch??? circles dimensions have diferent sizes!
sketch isn't complete.
Its a bit of a puzzle Gzegorz, can you expand on your question a bit? Notice that I drew the circles the wrong size on purpose and then constrained them for a good result.
