Course Description
In this course I will teach you how to design and model for 3D Printing and Laser Cutting using the free and powerful Autodesk Fusion 360 software. Most of the lessons are easy to follow practical examples where I take you through the design of a product step by step.
The course consists of 4 sections. In the first section I show you the fundamentals of 3d modeling through some more easy examples. In the second section we start modeling for 3d printing, where the designs we model can actually be 3d printed. In the third section we look at design for laser cutting and the interesting constraints you have to deal with when doing so. In the fourth section I teach you how to model parametrically. A very powerful method of 3d modeling which will make you an incredibly efficient and effective 3d modeler.
Each lesson builds upon the knowledge gained by the previous lessons, and by the end you will have enough experience and confidence to start creating your own designs in 3d.
This course is perfect for you if you are interested in 3d printing and/or laser cutting as you will learn how to design for both. The specific factors you need to take into account for both laser cutting and 3d printing are thoroughly discussed, and you will also build your 3d modeling skills needed to realize your ideas.

I'm Larno and I am an Industrial Designer from the Netherlands. I graduated university specializing in 3d modeling and I have always loved using modern methods of manufacturing like 3d printing and laser cutting to prototype my ideas. Now I work on several businesses where we use these production methods to create amazing designs. I have a lot of experience 1 on 1 tutoring people in 3d modeling and am excited to bring this to a higher level, which I have done with my courses on 3d modeling with Fusion 360.

THIS CLASS IS FANTASTIC. I'm saying that in all caps as I am completely new to autocad and almost 50 years old (as in I don't learn new things as easily as I did when I was much younger). Despite that, this class has really helped me feel a lot more comfortable with examples that really illustrate the features. I'm hoping in the next half of the class we cover more than just the Solid menu and cover Surface, mesh, sheet metal, and plastic and t-splines.

Aunque esperaba más información detallada en cuanto a la preparación específica para imprimir en 3D, el curso es bueno si eres totalmente nuevo en Fusion 360. Si ya lo has usado, como me pasaba a mí, creo que no satisfará del todo tus necesidades. En todo caso, muchas gracias al autor por su esfuerzo en la preparación y muestra de los trabajos realiazados.

This was a perfect match for me because I have been learning through YouTube most of the basics on how to use Fusion for 3D printing, but I felt I was missing something. This course has given me the confidence I needed to start projects the right way and not just randomly trying to choose tools and doing something how I think it should be done instead of doing things the right way and organized.

This course is great. It is very complicated tho so I wouldn't say this is starting from beginner. If you are stating from beginner and not knowing anything you'd probably be lost or confused through a lot of it. Although it is possible to start from not knowing anything I think one would be better off to take a starter course first.

Aprendi muito com este curso. Nunca tinha tido contacto com 3D e acho uma ótima ajuda para começar a desenvolver as minhas ideias. Explicações super claras e diretas. Só com o conteúdo deste curso é possível realizar muitas ideias.

I was looking for an introductory course about 3D modeling for 3D printing and this one does a good job. It covers the basics well and teaches you enough to start playing around. It is definitely focused on people with zero or very little experience. So if you are looking for a course that covers advanced topics, you may not be the target of this one.

This is my first course of the 3D modeling and printing and there are still lots of questions. Maybe for someone who has worked with a similar programs it is easy to follow but I miss some nuances and have hard time filling those gaps on my on at this point. Otherwise it is an excellent course!

I love his clear explanations. I was taking another course and I was so lost ! After the first lesson in this course I already am starting to understand. Thanks for your style of thorough teaching!
By Rowan Profitt on 3/2/2021
all the right amount of detail and practical examples to follow along with. I am alot further along in understanding 3D modelling than when i started this course.
By Jelle Neerhof on 1/7/2021
Very clear explanation of the difficult steps. The videos are straight forward and all needed steps are explained thoroughly without any time waste. I would recommend!
