Fusion 360 Basics and Commands

In this tutorial, Kevin Kennedy introduces Fusion 360, guiding users through creating a 2D sketch, extruding it into a 3D model, and adding features like circles and patterns. The video covers setting up the workspace, organizing components, and using key tools like Extrude, Shell, and Fillet. Users learn to manage projects, set default units, and save their work in Fusion 360's cloud-based environment.
