Wire routing

- [Instructor] So now that we've almost finished off our simplified robotic arm here, one final step I might be interested in is creating the electrical wiring or cabling. Now notice a lot of times in mechanical CAD systems we might completely ignore the electrical cabling and wiring, as it's fairly complex on the mechanical side of things, however, you probably have a full electrical team doing this maybe on a separate electrical CAD system for the cabling, harnessing, and so on. That being said, however, if we did want to create the electrical wiring within Fusion 360, we of course have a few options to do that as well and it might be useful to do this just for say marketing purposes, make it look nice, and so on, or it could actually be useful in say generating wire lengths or something like that. So here I'm just going to show one method we might use to achieve this and I'm just going to start by creating some…
