In the video below, Andreas covers using basic “bread and butter” solid-body modeling tools to model a proximal phalange.Watch video Autodesk Fusion 360 is a complex piece of software for modeling both onscreen assets (3D renders and animation) and offscreen physically manufactured elements. The e-NABLE community is producing targeted tutorial videos to help members get up to speed on Fusion and start designing. There are many more specific tutorials and tips on the Fusion Learning Page as well.Į-NABLE maintains a collaborative repository of design files in Fusion. It has a lot more information about techniques and more powerful modeling strategies. If you have some experience modeling, but are new to Fusion, take a look at the Tips and Best Practices playlist. It covers all the tools needed to get started modeling. The best place to start if you are new to 3D modeling is the Fusion 360 for Beginners Youtube Playlist. There are a ton of great resources for learning Fusion.
