This video demonstrates how to translate a chair design from Viktor Papanek's 1973 book Nomadic Furniture into a Fusion 360 parametric model. Making it parametric allows for changing the thickness of material, tolerance of the slots, and width of the chair. If you plan on actually cutting this on a CNC router, you may also want to watch this other video of mine: youtube.com/watch?v=oZDBR5QtjgA
There's also a short followup to this video here: youtu.be/Dqb5V_tw6aU
