Hello All,
I just downloaded the Autodesk Inventor Professional 2020 and I’m not sure how to use it. Any advice or tutorials would be great !
Make sure you get a vex parts library to use with it. Play around with the tools you have. The ones you will use the most would be joints and constraints however, so make sure you figure out how to attach two parts using those specific methods.

My teammate recommended me this library:
Click on the link in their post, the parts all have work axes down the center of holes and so it’s a lot easier to constrain parts together

If I remember correctly that library has off center holes on the faces of the 2 wide C-channels. So if you were to use it I would suggest using another library alongside it to get C-channels from. Also, if you do use different C-channels it is a pretty simple process to pattern work axis across the C-channels.

Like @YesSir said, I would recommend joining the CAD discord server. There’s a dedicated amount of people there willing to help with specific questions you may have about starting CAD, the Inventor interface, etc.
