Parametric Modeling
Lesson 3 of 6 Fusion Basics
You’ll now learn to model using parameters, a powerful function which can make your design more modular.
Parametric Design Challenge Homework
Create an object in Fusion using parameters as much as possible. The mathematical and coding aspects of parameters can be intimidating at first, but as Ivan has shown, this can be a very powerful technique once you’ve gotten used to it. You can follow along with what Ivan made or create something of your own, but either way we recommend branching out and experimenting!
