How would I create something similar to this using AutoCad?

Anonymous — Tue, 04 Apr 2017 00:06:15 GMT

I'm looking to create something similar to the following attached picture.

Would anyone be able to point me to helpful tutorials they may know off to make something similar? Thank-you.

First, Do you need the output in 3D or in 2D Isometric form?

Investigate 3Dsolids, focus commands would be BOX, EXTRUDE, UCS, 3DORBIT (3DORBITCTR), ARRAY, 3DARRAY

@Anonymous is pointing yo in the perfect direction!

If you are new to AutoCAD you will have to ramp up a little to learn how to navigate the program a bit. Using 3D will be your target as opposed to generating 2D isometric drawings.

Once you figure out how to create some 3D objects you will have the ability to create layouts showing front, top, side views, as well as isometric views or other "tilted views" via viewports. You will only need to establish your viewpoint for your 3D model to present your desired view.

Cheers,

Blaine

HI @Anonymous,

There is a lot of good advice here!

I built my model in 3D. I started by creating 2D geometry and then PressPull to get the depth on each. Then I started moving the parts into place. Once I had one frame build I copied down the line (array would work nicely too) and then mirrored for the opposite side.

I can leave in model space with an Iso view or I can use Viewbase to bring it into a Layout.
