This setting used to be on by default. You'll want to enable it to ensure the triangle we sketch (to create the Chamfer of the Hex Nut) allows us to snap to the edges of the 3D body. Click your Profile Photo (or initials) > Preferences > Design (tab on left) > Check \"Auto Project Edges on Reference\" > Apply > close the dialog.

Default Modeling Orientation \"Y\" Up (optional)
Looking at the X, Y, and Z-axis of your ViewCube in the upper-righthand corner, you may find your Z-axis is set to the \"up\" position. At the time of recording this tutorial, the \"Y up\" was the default. Changing this is optional; however, it is recommended to ensure you're steps are exactly the same. Click your Profile Photo (or initials) > Preferences > General (tab on left) > Change \"Default modeling orientation\" to \"Y up\" > Apply > close the dialog.

Visual Style set to Shaded (optional)
You may notice the appearance of the hex nut looks a little different. That's because my Visual Style setting was set to the \"Shaded\" option. This setting is simply visual and does not affect the 3D model in any manner. Go to your Display Settings (computer icon) at the bottom of Fusion 360 > Visual Style > select Shaded. The default Visual Style is \"Shaded with Visual Edges Only,\" which is used throughout this course.\n
