Instructor Details

Mike Freeman

I have over 23 years of experience as a Draughtsman & CAD Designer in a wide variety of disciplines and am an Autodesk Certified Professional in AutoCAD for Design and Drafting. I started on a drawing board learning traditional drafting skills and witnessed the introduction of CAD software into the industry. Originally starting on the very basic AutoCAD release 10 I have used every version of AutoCAD since as well as adding various other CAD software. This has given me a unique insight into how best to utilize these great tools in the real-world environment. 

Over the course of my career, I've trained countless people in the use of these tools and as most of this training was geared towards getting staff members up & running with this software as quickly as possible, I developed a method that gets my students actually creating drawings straight away. We then gradually add more advanced techniques as we go.

"I look forward to helping you get started and working with you over the course of your development."

Moves very quickly through operations. As in he works at his speed because he knows where everything is and what it does. For example, "i'm going to offset this circle with another" without giving a new user a chance to find the button click it and keep moving along with the instructor. A small pause of a second or two would help the learner find it, click it and carry on. Excellent explanations and examples, just needs to adjust the pacing a smidge.

By Lieve Wemaere on 6/6/2024

De cursus is goed opgebouwd. Goede uitleg over connecties bij het 3D-printen. De volledige modellering van de raket was voor mij wel wat te lang. Maar ik begrijp de overweging om dit volledig te modelleren.

By Dean Thorne on 11/21/2023

The tutorial was worth the price of the course! Mike does a great job of explaining all the ‘small’ details required when putting together large and complex projects. The tips for dealing with print quality on transitions was something I never would have considered. Much appreciate.

By Connor on 8/27/2023

Very straight forward course. Easily understood and you end the course with a finished model that is pretty in depth. I feel confident i can start doing some modeling on my own that i have been wanting to do for a while.

By Xavier Klijsen on 7/29/2023

Great course, I learned so much! The video editing is sometimes a bit off, especially in the beginning, don't be put of by this, this is very educational. I asked a few questions during the cource and they were answered within a few hours. That is super!! I can totally recommend this course. thanks

By James Smith on 4/26/2023

I did not know anything at all about CAD when I started these courses, and since taking the courses, I have successfully designed and 3D printed numerous functional parts.

By Ed Gomez on 3/4/2023

Appears he doesn't do much editing in his video. There's much lag and hesitations when he speaks. Starts to say something then hesitates and says something else. He's awkward to follow along. Looks as if he just wanted to get a video out and doesn't appear to have much experience at teaching.

By Rusty Atkins on 8/31/2022

Not much here I didn't know how to do after Mike's excellent Fusion 360 Complete Course. The model rocket was more than a little tedious (though at times he was going so fast I had to stop and rewind), but such is life in the design world. The rocket is proudly being put on display on our fireplace mantel. It is the one thing we've 3D printed (out of 100+) that we enjoy showing people. It's mind-boggling to me (a quick learner and all around technical guy) that a month ago, I didn't even know how to use this software, at ALL. Now I feel I can design almost anything. It's got me wishing I had room for CNC equipment in the garage. Thanks so much, Mike!

By Kevin gorman on 7/1/2022

It's simply a great course. It is challenging but not over the top. I feel fully engaged in the program and it compels me to keep going. It is truly addictive. If you are just starting out I would recommend his beginner course.

By Tony White on 6/30/2022

Enjoyed the course very much. Was given a 3D printer as a gift at end of last year so am a novice at 3D printing. Fusion 360 I am using to make my own models. Have made a 1:96 scale model of Spacex's StarShip before taking this class. Would have designed differently had I taken the class first. Did not want to glue it so used 1/8" steel dowel pins (3) at each intersection. Used Flashforge's Silk Silver PLA to get the shiny steel look. Regards Tony
