Good Day All,

Thanks,

Hi!

 

What is your problem, create the 3D or place the isometric in the drawing?

You already made the 3D model?

 

I think is not fair to do all for you, this is not a place to do student's work, you have to learn and do something, give us something. What you already done? Attach the ipt and we guide you...

I'm not asking you to do it for me. Give me a hint. I tried for hours but it's not making sense to me!! I'm trying it on a graph paper.

It's not about starting the software and throwing stuff at it and make it work. I'm not understanding it!!

 

Top view is not lining up with front and right view. It's very tricky....

 

Thank you....

HI!

 

 

Take a look, maybe now you will figure a way to draw your isometric.

This should get you started, a quick 30 second sketch on the old iPad. I didn't do all your work and left you the front chamfer corners. Capture1.JPG

Hi,

Please have a look at attachment.

This was very tricky, It wasn't possible without your help. I was overlooking the right side which dictated the slope at the front.

You are missing a line.

 

Why not simply make the 3D model in Inventor and observe the results?

Thanks, it's the horizontal line on the left triangle, correct?

Well i wanted to do it by hand first to understand and imagine it while doing it.

I understand that you are trying to learn freehand sketching, but I would start with the known and then work towards imagination as you gain experience.

 

Then rather than asking if "something makes sense", you know when you are right (or wrong).  Otherwise, it sounds like guessing to me.  I would expect less efficient progress to good sketching skills.

 

We get so used to school-based testing that we start to see the world as a test.

I remember going to the eye-doctor and guessing at what I was seeing on the chart.

Now how would that help me get the correct diagnosis of my eyesight if by chance I guessed correctly (I could sort of see the letters - not a complete guess in the dark).  That is how I see your problem.

I will eventually use Inventor but i need to understand the basics first before i jump into Inventor.

 

Thanks,

ISO Sketching takes time, work is the other way around. Take simple objects and hand draw them in the 3-views. Set the object in each view on your desk surface and then look at it from each designated view and then hand sketch the view, Side, Top and End, then place it in the ISO position and hand draw it.

 

Everything in life is a test, you are only good as your last job, project or assignment.

Hi! Did you try starting with the lower right view? Try to create a sketch based on that view and extrude the profile. It should help make some sense. Then add more features to see if the solid looks closer to the other views.

You need to develop the skills on your own irrespective of the CAD systems you want to use. Otherwise, you could have problems understanding drawing views.

Thanks!

Thank you all for taking the time to help. I think i'm getting the idea and will continue practising. Here is what i have been trying in inventor. Your feedback is welcomed.

Post the IPT file here, we can take a look at your modeling/construction techniques and suggest possible improvements

Sketch 1 is missing a dimension.

Sketch 4 and 5 are missing dimensions.

 

Make use of obvious symmetry.
