Fusion 360: Create your own moving cam tutorial
Category:Design and technology
This resource provides step-by-step instructions on how Fusion 360 can be used to create a cam and follower, including basic rendering and movement of the cam and follow components around an axle.
What is CAD modelling?
Yes, you can now insert certain types of 3D models into PowerPoint, rotate them and even animate them. At the end, I'll show you a video of an animated 3D model in PowerPoint. In the Fusion 360 Data Panel open the start file from Samples Workshops & Events Adoption Path Basics of Sketching and Parameters. Apparently YouTube videos can't be embedded in a table, as there should be one shown above.

Fusion 360 Pattern Cut
Autodesk Fusion 360 is a powerful, professional CAD package. Free download is available to students, educators and start-ups/enthusiasts. Click here to read more at about the student/education download and for more general information on free download, click here.
Note that since these tutorials were produced, a new version of Fusion 360 has been released. The main difference with the interface of the new version is how one accesses the Sketch tools. This document has a short summary of this change.
The tutorials are listed in order of complexity, so it is best to start with the first four or five to build skills.
