3D Modeling – Fusion 360

I found Fusion 360 to be a good piece of 3D modeling software. I enjoyed my time using Fusion 360, and I was able to understand the program. FreeCAD was the opposite. I hated using that software and was unable to do what I wanted with it. FreeCAD’s UI was so ugly and difficult to understand. The class should’ve done the Fusion 360 chapter before FreeCAD. We learned in this order: TinkerCAD, FreeCAD, then Fusion 360. TinkerCAD was made for babies, but a great way to learn about 3D modeling. FreeCAD sucked and ruined my grade. We shouldn’t even have had to learn FreeCAD; Fusion 360 was such a superior piece of software.

Model 1: Tutorial Shape

The tutorial shape was very straight forward and easy to complete. I was able to create the shape very easily the first day we went over it.

Model 2: Lampshade

The lampshade was not as hard as I thought it would be. The technique of drawing a line on paint and importing it into Fusion 360 was interesting

Model 3: The Flask (Fusion 360)

The flask was pretty difficult to model, and I had a way easier time doing it in TinkerCAD.

Model 4: Bowler Hat (Fusion 360)

This was the most difficult one for me, and I did have an easier time doing this one in TinkerCAD. I do think it came out pretty good, but it could’ve been better.
