I’m a big fan of Fusion 360.<br>
<br>
Good mix of parametric, direct modelling, sketching workspaces with room to grow. At its basic level though, its very accessible for kids and more intuitive than expected. I’ve had year 8 students handle it well, even prefer it over “simpler” options.<br>

I started using Onshape last year. It’s free, can run on most computers as it’s browser based.<br>
<br>
I started using Fusion this year and wouldn’t look back (assuming computers can run it). They’re similar in they way you draw. Onshape seems to be a stripped back version of Fusion. We started with these tutorials on YT and students picked it up within a few weeks. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yPKMSb6ja8&t=1s" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yPKMSb6ja8&t=1s</a><br>

Here’s a headphone stand I wasp laying around with. The renderings are fantastic. <a href="https://a360.co/30V5IbX" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://a360.co/30V5IbX</a><br>

Change of topic.<br>
<br>
I am trying to decide which CAD to use with kids. onshape or fusion 360<br>
I am a novice at both myself.<br>
Is one easier than the other?<br>
Will be using it for preparing /designing for CNC and Laser cutting<br>
We dont have access to desktop computers so students will be using their own devices and as far as I know these programs are available online?<br>
<br>
