CarmeloLabadie Posted November 23, 2021 Posted November 23, 2021 I am learning technical drawing alongside tutorials from CADlearning for Autocad. What are some simple projects I could practice at this early stage? both in CAD and manually - What online resources are available for this? Note - I am not looking for anything specific in regards to the type of drawing i.e. a mechanical, electrical or architectural drawing, rather a workbook of making simple 2D & 3D shapes & objects and different ways of presenting them.

ReMark Posted November 23, 2021 Posted November 23, 2021 Look around your house/apartment. What do you see? OBJECTS! Anything you can pick up and actually measure can be used as the inspiration for creating a drawing in AutoCAD. Start small then work your way up to larger objects. Another option would be to go to your local library (remember those?) and check out a book about drafting. It should have plenty of examples of items that you can draw. Use your imagination! 1 Quote
BIGAL Posted November 24, 2021 Posted November 24, 2021 (edited) Look at the section here about Penn Foster lots of example dwgs you could try to duplicate. Like Remark draw your room. Edited November 24, 2021 by BIGAL Quote

If you are comfortable with online resources then you can go for some online sites like myCADsite, Cadalyst, CADTutor, Tutorial 45 and there are many more, but these are the best one for you because it has many practice paper as well as good tricks and tips.
