Create T-Spline Cylinder ~25mm in diameter.

Use a T-Spline primitive to begin a model.

Review design window interface elements.

Lesson 2 – Creating a Freeform shape using T-Splines technology

Use of Dashboard elements including preview of file.

Scan file data without the need to open the design.

Create a new working project connecting to other users.

Explore the Fusion 360 Dashboard environment.

Lesson 1 – Introduction to the Fusion 360 Dashboard and Projects A moderate understanding of computer operations is essential to completing this class as the majority of the learning is performed on a computer.

PrerequisitesĪ background in drafting or design would be beneficial before starting this hands on session. When complete the student will have created a Chocolate treat, its mold, imported and modified solid model data, created bodies and components that form a mechanism, created orthographic drawings and exported a STL file of a component for production on a 3D printer. The intention of the lessons is to allow the student to feel comfortable with the Autodesk Fusion 360 interface, by building simple, creative, and accurate parts and then joining the components to act as an assembly. These lessons are intended to cover the most fundamental commands that are required to create sketches, parts, assemblies, basic 2D drawings and a STL files for output to a 3D printer.

In addition to developing 3D models this course will expose students to importing and manipulating data from other design systems and creating output to additive manufacturing systems. The following hands-on exercises will provide the skills necessary to develop basic knowledge of environment management, 3D modeling, assembly connections and other stills key to learning Fusion 360.
