Step-by-step Guide
Before we begin modeling and prototyping our designs, we’ll review several foundational concepts that will help us anticipate necessary modifications to our designs during the engineering and manufacturing phases. By understanding how designs are made and assembled, we can create better designs from the start. In this course, we explore the core concepts behind Fusion 360 CAD/CAM through a series of lectures and hands-on exercises to set you on a path toward success, right from the start.

Reviews
Is there a course challenge assignment with this module? I see the heading, however, no documents are attached.
how to downloade
No way to just download all?
Would it be to just to coinvent to add a download link of fusion 360 to the asset download link too? Your get the software video is a joke. Register account then download like you would any other software. While complaining here in this review i see a downloads link way at the bottom of this page. Gonna check it out.
