    Default Ceiling Fan Block

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Does anyone have a ceiling fan block (for a 2D drawing) that they would be willing to share? I have searched the free blocks (that I am aware are available), but I cannot find a ceiling fan fixture. I believe this is the last block I need for my final project in my beginning CAD class.

    I am working in Autocad 2004 (upgraded to 2006).

    Thanks.

    In a nutshell, I create 3D models from the client's CAD files or design sketches, which I then use to produce high quality rendered images. Click on the link in my signature to view my portfolio. I'm always looking for work, so let me know if you need any renders. :)

    Have you tried drawing it yourself? I mean, isn't that why you're taking a Cad class, to learn how to draw using Autocad? Sure, someone could give you the drawing, but what will you have learned?

    If you're not sure what a ceiling fan block should look like, then use your imagionation. I've never seen one, but I suspect that a small circle, say 200mm diameter, with 4 shapes that look like a plane prop coming out from it at 90 degree angular separation for about 750mm.

    That would work fine for me.

    Give a designer a block, and you feed him for a day. Tell a designer about www.cben.net and you feed him for a lifetime.

    Creating your own blocks is self rewarding

    You can learn a lot from using someone elses blocks as well, Sometime by the time you modify them to suit your purpose, it can be 4 times as much work than drawing your own from scratch
