Modifying Plastic Bottle to Hold Exact Measure

I had a problem presented to me to determine the volume of liquid an existing bottle held and then modify the bottle, using Fusion 360, so it would hold an exact US Imperial Quart of liquid.  The plastic bottle model given to me to start with was a dumb solid body, no features or parameters.  I decided to use Fusion 360 to determine the existing volume the bottle would currently hold but to also use it to modify the bottle to hold the required volume.

In my video I used a variety of processes in Fusion 360 including:

• Parameters
• Solids manipulation using Combine, Split Body, Body Remove and others
• Workplane creation
• Move/Copy command
• and others  

Please take a look and see how Fusion 360 can make the re-design of a product easy.

Autodesk Fusion 360 New Derive and Insert Derive Command

I would like to introduce you to the powerful design possibilities the new Fusion "Drive" and "Insert Derive" commands give you.  I have created a video to show you some applications for this command along with the proper use and configuration of the command dialog boxes.  I want to emphasis that there are a lot more applications for these commands than I could show in the video.  When considering the possibilities think about how, the ability to share a complete sketch, model bodies, model components, parameters, assemblies or sheet metal flats into a new or existing design and what you share will be "linked" to the original, will enhance your design possibilities.
