Advanced 3D Printing with Fusion 360 - Design Your Phone Case [Video]

3D printing or additive manufacturing lets you construct a 3D object from a CAD or digital 3D model. It can be done in various processes in which material is deposited, joined, or solidified under computer control. The material is added together (plastics, liquids, or powder grains fused) layer by layer.
With this project-based course, you will acquire a useful and valuable set of tools and techniques to advance your designs to the next level while creating fun and applicable 3D printable models for your phone. The major skills you will learn include replicating real-life objects (such as a phone) in 3D and creating 3D print parts to fit these real-life objects precisely (a phone case). You will learn various methods to design and implement movement and interaction between 3D print parts through hinges, sliders, snap joints, click systems, and so on. You will also explore slightly more advanced features within Fusion 360, such as parametric modeling, surface modeling, 3D sketching, and importing pictures or meshes as references in your designs.
Upon completion of the course, you will be able to understand the advanced concepts of 3D printing, such as parametric modeling, surface modeling, 3D sketching, and rendering your designs. You will print objects you created through the course and manage 3D printing independently.
What You Will Learn
Learn to model a phone using technical drawings
Create simple and hinged phone cases and model attachment clips
Learn to develop a grip attachment
Develop a foldable tripod attachment
Create hinges, sliders, snap joints, and click systems using 3D printing
Understand how to render the projects you created
Audience
This course is designed for someone interested in 3D printing or laser cutting. Individuals interested in 3D modeling using Fusion 360 and even industrial designers that use software to design and print models would benefit from this course. The prerequisites include some experience of Fusion 360.
