Are you ready to 3D model projects in Autodesk Fusion (formerly Fusion 360) and looking for the best place to start learning how? We’ve meticulously designed and tested 28 step-by-step tutorials to help beginners and those looking to level up their skillset a clear path towards mastery. By introducing a few new concepts and ideas precisely as needed, you will not get overwhelmed with too much information and can reliably improve.
In addition, we’ve reimagined book learning by incorporating a private online discussion forum linked to each project where you can ask questions, get help from us and the community, and show off what you make. That way, if you get stuck, you’re not left Googling for hours to try and find a solution.
We aim to help you bring your ideas and creativity to life by providing an easy-to-follow and enjoyable CAD modeling workbook. Even if you’ve purchased another Fusion 360 CAD book, you will still find value in working through our tutorials.
