Take a look at this video and see if it helps http://www.screencast.com/t/hhkS7p19c8xZ

 

As JDMather said, you'll need to create some offset lines which can be used for filleting, or used to draw circles using the Tangent-Tangent-Radius method which you can trim back later as I did in the video.

"...rather than an antiquated 25+ year old program like AutoCAD."

 

I wonder what it would be worth on the Antiques Roadshow?

My wife wonders why I keep my first computer in a box in the closet. (386 - 16MHz) I forget what version of AutoCAD (I think r11).

I intend to set it up as a nostalgic display someday.

I'll see your 386 with r11, and raise you a 286 with r10! I still have it, though I haven't turned it on since 2000 when everyone thought all the computers would crash and the world would end. I dragged it out, fired it up on New Year's Eve and watched it roll over. Funny thing, even that poor old thing knew it was 2000 and not 1900. Curious.

 

At any rate, I tried drawing this thing and found the same mistake you did on that 59 dimension. It just don't work.
