Course Description
Learn to design a gift box that can be 3D printed and given as a gift. It will add an extra personal touch to your next gift. We cover many useful modeling techniques in Fusion 360 including creating patterns, shells, mirrors, user parameters, the spline tool, and many others. Learn how to be more efficient with your sketches by taking advantage of sketch constraints and learning how and when to use them.
This is a project based course that walks you through creating a model that is comprised of several parts resulting in a beautiful gift box that you will love and be proud of. This is an excellent follow-up to the intro course - Fusion 360 for 3D Printing. By the end of the course you should feel more confident in your design skills and ability to start creating your own models with Fusion 360.
We also cover things to consider when designing for 3D printing such as modeling orientation and applying proper offsets to obtain the correct tolerances for that perfect fit when parts need to be assembled after 3D printing. This also includes a brief dive into using slicer software to prepare your model for 3D printing.

Again this course was amazing, easy to follow and the speed of the course lends itself well to novices like myself. I will continue to seek out other courses by Vladimir.

Nice and concise at a good speed, reinforcing some of the basics I have learned resulting in a pretty little gift box. thank you

The course was well paced and comprehensive. Vladimir explained concepts used and individual steps clearly. I especially like to understand the approach to modelling a specific object as every object is different. The use of patterns and user-defined parameters is very powerful and something I will use in my future projects. Thank you for an excellent course. My only feedback would be to update the material to reflect the latest Fusion 360 user interface. This is not an issue for me personally but may be confusing to less experienced users.

Excellent course ! The instructor can effectively use problem-solving scenarios as teaching tools. This course is a great start for those who has the intention to print your own models or to sell solutions and turn it into a business. My other next steps is to learn or pratctice modeling complex shapes and models and then begin to 3D printing accessories to different electrical and mechanical tools.

Kurs ok. Paru rzeczy się nowych dowiedziałem (byłem po wcześniejszym kursie tego samego autora). W paru momentach bym zrobił to inaczej, ale to już przeanalizuje w późniejszym czasie.

Very good course for continuing one's learning in Fusion 360. The instructor is thorough, but it is expected that the student already has a basic knowledge of Fusion 360.
By Jeff Chevalier on 2/25/2019
This course covers exactly what it says. The instructor did a very good job of explaining how the different tools work and even multiple ways to accomplish the same end result. I would definitely recommend this course to other beginners as well as the instructor. I will be taking his other classes as well. If I had to say one down side of this course is that it seemed small to me, the topic was covered well just not a large topic I guess.

Another GREAT training video by Vladimir! Perfectly compliments and builds on the first course.

Good Course, but good darn it is annoying that each time he clicks, the curser moves out of the way, you really have to pay extra close attention to where he clicks.
By Don Evans on 5/30/2018
Another great course! Easy to follow along with if you have taken his other courses and like his style, which I do, has a easy going teaching style and you seem to retain it all as you go along. Explains shortcuts as you go along so they get to be second nature to you. After taking your other courses I was able to just keep up with you and not pause or go back, well done!
