Youtube is an excellent source. Here is a Fusion tutorial playlist from Autodesk https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P ... xFlBY371oZ
Possibly Lynda https://www.lynda.com/Fusion-360-tutori ... 063-2.html
I have a hard time paying when there is so much free info though. Fusion is going to take some time if you have never used CAD software before. Fusion is so feature-rich, you can get lost in tutorial land, trying to remember settings and check boxes and CAM and dropdown and workflows and and and and....
A great way to learn something is to work backwards so you dont get over saturated with info that doesn't apply to you. Think about your finished project, then search and learn those specific features.
To make a box 2x2x2 with chamfered edges. You need to learn to make a box, you need to learn to dimension, you need to learn chamfering. You don't need to sit through an hour tutorial on Adaptive Toolpaths for CAM milling in Fusion to know how to draw a box.
