Fusion 360 Tutorial | CAM Basics

The very first tutorial that the producer talked at a pace I could follow and absorb, Simply great. 80yo from down under.

You've shown me everythng I needed to know in ONE video, where 50 other videos did not! Absolute gold dude! Would love to see more of these, starting with milling gears ;)

This is probably the best tutorial for a CNC beginner, a step by step guide is exactly what I needed. Thank you.

Austin, congrats on an incredibly well done tutorial! As an Engineer I've taken lots of classes and watched lots of videos throughout my career and this is at the very top for pace, simplicity, thoroughness and practicality! I've been a fabricator and car builder all of my life and I'm taking the "plunge" into CNC just now and while I know the basics of Fusion for modeling (and have used most of the other packages over the years), I had NO CLUE how to develop programs for CNC in the CAM side of F360. This was a stellar jump-start for me! Thank you!

Thank you for not stating out with a 6 axis turbine wheel. Thank you for cover so many details. Looking at the adaptive tool paths really makes me appreciate the value of F360.

Dude... just thanks, you really took a thoughtful and methodical approach to this as if you were someone who never did this before, I learned probably more here than I have on some of the professional guided videos. Thanks!

This is the best, most coherent fusion360 cnc tutorial I've seen thus far. You're a good man, Austin.

Good job! I’ve seen 4-5 other videos from big name professionals and yours definitely competes. Super thorough and your pace is just right.

Searched high and low for a video to show me how to transfer my designs from Fusion 360 to my CNC for woodwork. This is, by a long long way, the best video out there! Really well structured and at a pace a noob can follow. You should do more of these types of video!

This is Gold! The most comprehensive, informative and detailed instruction for Fusion CAM that I could find anywhere - and I have been looking for one like this for weeks. Thank you for the great work.

What a breath of fresh air, I so appreciate your taking time to go through this project. Almost as intense as flying a plane! I will prepare my check lists for this whole process, I've mucked it up way too much to date and saw every wrong move I made on this video. Thanks again, look forward to the next video.

This tutorial is possibly the best one on Youtube for this type of thing. This spells out all the basics in a simple, accurate way. Austin, thank you very much.

Your Videos (all of them) are a valuable contribution for all, can't thank you enough for your time and efforts. Just sharing these video with friends has enabled them to buy a CNC machine.

I'm so glad you're going in this direction. These videos have levelled up my game so much!

I'm very happy you came up RIGHT AFTER NyCNC. I am so happy you are being put right there after probably the #1 Youtuber!!!! Congrats and thank you for all the work you have done. I'm making furniture but I was stuck until I found your neck tutorials.

This is gold standard YouTube content. Thanks so much for making this. Incredibly well paced, great information for a beginner like me trying to understand tool pathing for the first time. Its rare and refreshing to find someone who can take such a complex thing and break it down and walk through it so effectively. Thanks!

This is the first Fusion 360 CAM tutorial I watch in which the author takes the time to explain every step of the process instead of just going through the motions and assuming the student will follow. The "what" and the "why" are essential to comprehension and learning. Not every YouTube CNC machinist understands this. When you've been doing something for many years, it becomes second nature and it's easy to forget or completely overlook how complicated or confusing it looks like to an absolute beginner. Teaching skills is a skill in and of itself. Thank you!!

@Asutin this is absolutely the best F360 tutorial I've seen, thank you. Your content is gold, now a Patreon subscriber — Can't wait to actually do the parametric neck and fretboards with my 1F.

Austin, you are a very patient teacher. When I fisrt opend the video, I am like I'll watch just a few minutes, but I ended up watching the entire video in one shot because you explain everything to a lay man like me to comprehend.

This has got to be one of the best Fusion 360 CAM tutorials out there. Even better than ones made by Autodesk! lol Great video thank you for making it!
