Sketching and Part Modeling


Course overview

Learn the importance of creating 2D sketches as the basis for solid designs.  You'll create fully dimensioned and constrained 2D sketches in Fusion with simple entities such as lines, rectangles, arcs, and polygons.  You'll use those 2D sketches to create extrudes and revolves and modify them with tools like fillets and hole.  Through practice you'll understand the importance of creating robust sketches and part models as the foundation to 3D CAD modeling. 

After completing this course, you’ll be able to:

  • Create and edit 2D sketches
  • Apply dimensions and constraints
  • Create an extrude
  • Create a revolve
  • Apply modification tools
  • Use Hole
