Introduction

This tutorial is the third in a series teaching basic Fusion CAD sketching and modeling tools.

In the previous tutorial, we took the design a simple hollow box and added mounting features to it, using some parametric design tools available in Fusion. In this tutorial we will continue to add the features that will give the box its function: A sample electronics enclosure that could be made on a 3D printer.

In this tutorial we will add some more mounting features for attaching a lid to the box, and for mounting a circuit board inside the box. For the most part the tools used will be the same as those used in the previous tutorial, except we will introduce cutting of the solid using the "Extrude" tool, as well as copying and pasting sketch features in multiple places.
