This course is designed to take students from zero experience in Fusion 360 to an intermediate level of CAD modelling. You will learn the Fusion 360 interface, sketching tools, 3D modelling techniques, and how CAD workflows differ from polygon-based modelling tools like Blender, 3ds Max, and Maya. Throughout the course, you will build practical skills through guided lessons and real-world examples, culminating in several hands-on projects that bring together everything you’ve learned.
The course begins with the basics of sketching and building simple shapes, then moves into more advanced modelling tools such as extrude, revolve, loft, sweep, fillet, chamfer, shell, and combine. You will also learn how to use the timeline and history-based modelling features to make non-destructive edits, which is a major difference from traditional polygon workflows. Additionally, you will learn how to export models for 3D printing and other programs, and how to prepare your designs for production.
By the end of this course, you will be confident in creating accurate 3D models, understanding CAD design intent, and using Fusion 360 for product design, prototyping, and engineering workflows. You will also be able to apply these skills to create practical objects, personal projects, and professional designs that suit your needs.
