Hi,

>> I dont know how to do it

Show us what you have and let's then discuss what the next steps could be.

Just describing how I would do it would mean you can copy my workflow, but not learn how to solve problems.

Thats pretty fundamental. I'm certain this would have been covered in your course. Might wanna go to class an not procrastinate 🙂 #beentheredonethat

First make sure you are using the right units. If you are supposed to be using templates select the template for the right units. 

If you are not using template you need to make sure your drawing units are set: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad-lt/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2019/ENU/Au...

Once you are in the right units you enter the data with the command: https://www.cadforum.cz/cadforum_en/qaID.asp?tip=6447

Here is a walk through... kinda.. I've done a lot of gunslinger events and frequently bring down the average if i can brag a little haha. Another way to think about it is there are several way to do this sort of things so just becuase i do it one way does not mean its the best way. Another key thing to do first is identify all the data you would need before you start (otherwise you will have to redo things like i did)

It should be noted that i may have done it wrong, so you need to double check your work. You can see in this screen cast i put in some construction lines at the wrong angle so make sure you dont do exactly what i did.
