My dad always used to say “everyone has a building project in them”. This will be my third…
Having moved into the family home with my late wife Gloria some twenty years ago we undertook a number of building projects. One that we never got around to was rebuilding the garage dad constructed circa 1960.
With Gloria now sadly gone it's down to me to do this on my own (well - with a little help with the footings and slab).
The original garage was suffering badly with subsidence and the weather and was well past economic repair, so I’m knocking it down...
Once that’s done and new footings have been built and a slab poured, it's out with the first-fix-nailer and I’m on the way to a new workshop!
Fusion may seem an odd choice for designing a timber building but whilst it was somewhat painful at times (featheredge springs to mind) my “Personal License” is free, I know my way around the basics pretty well, I could produce drawings as needed, and most importantly, I wanted a Bill Of Materials for ordering timber and sheet materials.
Producing a design suitable for BOM output had its quirks, mainly trying to avoid using “mirrors” and “copy new”. Additionally, I started to see small errors (probably rounding errors) appearing with "extrude" in particular which needed to be accounted for but with a little patience, I got there in the end…
Hi all - I'm excited to kick off another 3D Modeling challenge. Giving away some different prizes this time.

I keep a number of test meters in my "electrical" tool bag, all of which use AA or AAA batteries. I don't like leaving them in the meters because I forget (I'm at that age!) and they eventually leak. You can't keep them in a tin (thought about that - bad idea) so what to do?
How about this?
I had an old "Chinese" Phillips head screwdriver knocking about which I broke up, printed a new handle for, and made a screwdriver the size of an AA battery - now I've always got a small screwdriver to change the batteries when I need it...

Hi Everyone, I wanted to share with you my latest Fusion 360 project. The platform is designed using traditional modeling while the body was created using the form environment, a first for me. Lots of fun learning new things.
This is my biggest project with Fusion360 and 3Dprinted parts from my designs. It has been the perfect project for learning designing and 3Dprinting. It has a 3Dprinted Lowered LF A-arm, battery holder, reciever holder, rim guards and tail spoiler mount parts. It's been stretched about 2" with aluminum parts which allowed me to include the mount for the tail wing to include the relocated body mount in the Fusion360 drawing.
I'm Larry and I'm retired from too many things. I'm pushing 74 but like to learn new things. Just started with 360 two weeks ago. I'm on lesson 20 of 30 day series for beginners.
I am a mentor for a high school robotics class and am learning 360 for use therein. My grandson is in the class and we are learning it together along with 3-D printing and the ardurino.
Looking forward to mastering 360.

I am a Luthier Artist and I specialize in building art in the form of musical instruments. I also build static sculptures. I want to venture into lost PLA eventually. I have 2 3Dprinters and have been taking this course for a little while now. I am already designing and making parts for RC race cars for practice. PDO with Kevin Kenned has been the best course I have found to date and I look forward to learning more.
Here's is one component of a larger project, it is a ball clamp for the end of a threaded rod, with hardware incorporated directly from McMaster-Carr. All components of the project will be printed on my Ender 3 Pro with NylonX, a carbon fiber infused nylon filament.
