Step 1: Create Fusion 360 Account
What you need:•Valid email account
To Do:Sign up for Fusion
360 Start-up License
Step 2: Projects, New Designs
•Everything is saved to cloud•Designs can be shared easily• You can collaborate online at the same time
Step 3: Camera Commands
•Zoom Camera: Scroll wheel•Pan Camera: Middle mouse (hold and drag)•Rotate Camera: Shift + Middle mouse (hold and drag)
Simplest Fusion360 Flow
2D Sketch
3D CreateModify
C-Plane
Step 4: 2D Sketch
Common Shortcuts•L is for Line•R is for Rectangle•C is for Circle (Centre-diameter style)•D is for Dimension
Step 5: 3D Create
Common Shortcuts•E is for Extrude•You can also create simple 3D shapes directly
Step 6: Modify
Common Shortcuts•Q is for Press/Pull•F is for Fillet•M is for Move
Understanding Construction
Planes
Construction planes tell the computer where you want to draw your 2D sketches• 3 are auto-generated (X, Y and Z-planes)• All flat surfaces of bodies can be made• Some you have to define using
“Construct” tools
Understanding History Bar
History bar allows you to revisit your design at any step in the past• Bar is found at the bottom• Each major step has its own icon• When editing a 2D Sketch, remember to
click “Stop Sketch” to continue time-traveling…
Step 7: Export for Print
In your Browser1. Under “Bodies”2. Right-click the 3D body to export3. Left-click “Export to STL”4. Import the STL file into your 3D printer
Fusion 3601-2-3
Basic workflow is Sketch (2D), Create (3D), Modify• You sketch 2D designs (Sketches) on a C-plane• You create 3D objects (Bodies) from Sketches• You can Modify 3D objects
Other useful info• C-planes are automatically generated
• But you can define them manually too for more accuracy
• History bar allows you to edit any step in your design• Time Travel can have unforeseen consequences…
• Export for 3D printing is a simple right-click option

SCAMPER Framework
• Substitute• Combine• Adapt•Modify• Put to another use• Eliminate• Reverse
Substitute• What other product or process could you use?• What rules could you substitute?• Can you use this product as a substitute for
something else?
Combine
• What would happen if you combined this product with another?
• What if you combined functions, purposes?
Adapt• How could you adapt this product
to serve another use?
• What else is the product like? (What else is like your product?)
• What other products/ideas could you use for inspiration
Modify• How could you change the shape, look or feel
of your product?• What could you add to modify this product?• What could you emphasize or highlight to
create more value?
Put to Another Use• Can you use this product
somewhere else?
• Who else could use this product?
• How would this product behave differently in another setting?
Eliminate
• How could you streamline or simplify this product?
• What features, parts or rules could you eliminate?
• What could you understate or tone down?
The simplest cup…
…is no cup.
Reverse• What would happen if you
reversed this process?• What if you changed the order
of doing things?• How could you reorganize this
product?
