| Hey guys, not to long ago, I got a old version of autocad (like 2000 or something) I have been playing around with it, and have come up with this. I realize it is probably a really bad plans, but for me its a start.

| AutoCAD takes a while to get use to. One of my classes that I am taking now is an AutoCAD class, and once you learn how to use all of the tools and stuff, it gets easier. So keep practicing and eventually you'll get it.

| I use autocad alot and it comes down to a few basic tools. once you learn them, it isnt so bad. there is also more than one way to draw something. there can be multiple paths to go and still end up with the same results, you will develope a drawing style , a favorite tool and procedure method. its best to take a class on it to learn the basics unless you can understand the stinkin manual. I sure by now there is also some free online video tutorials too |

| I used Acad a lot also. From ver. 7 to v2002. Great program for 2D imo. Quick, powerful if setup for a specific style or application. As I moved into 3D, or the industry did I didn't like the way Acad did 3D. I had a chance to try Solidworks and was pleasantry surprised at its power. I concentrated on SW for a few months till I could do what I needed, life was good. Then one day I get this acad file that needed work, so I load it up and the next five minutes still stand out in my mind clear as day. I was at a total loss in this program I'd used for more that a decade. Complete blank, like a dog given a math problem, I didn't know if I should laugh or scream. How could I loss so much so fast. I even had to hunt down a tutorial, then it hit me, this thing has a command line input for the most part. Then it started coming back, and I struggled through the repair job swearing never to go there again. So far I've yet to need to. Those that know it more power to you. BTW did they ever put a loft function in acad? hehe:) |
