Are we talking mechanical?

Three possible sources are old fashion books every technical draftsman / CAD operator should have in their library. They are:

Basic Technical Drawing by Henry Cecil Spencer

and...

Engineering Drawing by Thomas E. French

and something a little newer:

Technical Graphics Communication by Gary Betoline and Eric Wiebe.

Look in any one of these and you'll find plenty of real world examples to keep you practicing for a long time.

Try this link. Look at the bottom left hand corner under download CAD drawings. You may have to register first. It's free though.
