Why windows?
Why windows?
Because its what people at my work use and I haven't been there long enough to convince them linux is better.

Sucks when we all cant get those Soros shekels for "protesting" and not actually have to work (like the reeeetards).
Luckily I get 6 paid hours to sit in a truck today. Back to the office by noon though.

I'm at work trying to figure out how to make shop drawings with AutoCAD
If I can work out how to do this.... I'll have much more to offer with my skill set.

I work with AutoCAD Mechanical almost everyday. Anything specific you need help with?

Awesome!
I'm learning it all from scratch. My boss has to wait up to 4 days for the shop drawings to come back with even the most simplest of changes. I feel like I could have these done within minutes but upon loading it up it's so overwhelming.
I haven't even figured out how to draw a straight line and have measurements corresponding to the line.
I have a long weekend at the moment and wont be getting back into it until Tuesday.
So any advice at all would be helpful. Even if you could direct me towards a video.

As far as learning, when you open AutoCAD there will be a learn and create (I think) links on the startup tab. The autodesk videos are extremely helpful. Some good concepts to look into would be model space vs paper space as well. Learn about blocks and how to use them. Also, if you want to look like a pro to your boss Ctrl + Shft + c copies all selected entities as a block and then click for your reference point. Use Ctrl+Shft+V to paste as a block, your cursor will place it relative to where you chose your reference point.
Above all SNAPS, SNAPS, SNAPS, SNAPS. Learn them, Love them, use them. They are, imho, one of the most helpful mechanics to the program.
xl command does an infinity line which you can place then choose angle, or hit "v" for a vertical infinity line or "h" for a horizontal infinity line placed by your cursor.
Different folks like different approaches: My engineering manager likes to have all the toolbars up and clicks everything while me and another engineer have almost all the commands and shortcuts memorized. Depending on what you like and get comfortable with will speed you up. Speed comes with time as well, don't rush it and make sure to double check your work before plotting.
dim command (in Mechanical Idk about base CAD) will allow your cursor to select snaps or objects to dimension. DIMSTYLE command (DIMSTY for short) will allow you to change the way your dimensions look. Also DIMSCALE will scale your dimensions according to your plot scale on your border if you work in model space. If you work in paper space, your dimscale and text height will all be set by your paper size. (i.e. 1.5" Text for a size 4 sheet)
This is really all the quick tips I can think of off of the top of my head. I've been using AutoCAD for about a total of 2 or 3 years and Solidworks for about 1.5 or 2, so I'm no expert, but I can help.

Werking, just a little login to see how it's going.

Seems like quite a few of us are at work. Not a bad thing at all.

I'm not here either.
I'm also not finding some content to help y'all get some stuff to read.
Nope... In fact, this text you're reading is a figment of your imagination. You should see a doctor about that.

Oh, I submit wonderful stuff (if I do say so myself). But, I got tired of fielding the stupid responses on Voat.
I can only take the time to argue the planet is an imperfect sphere so many times. I can't reason someone out of the position that Jews are responsible for the conspiracy known as physics. They sure as hell didn't reason themselves into that position. And, no... I'm not going to "debate" that the Christian Bible is a valid science book and all the science we need. I just don't have the patience for that.

I can understand not having patience for it. Sometimes it was a little grating to see a great article posted and then see "Iht wuz deh joooos" immediately. No real discussion on the article or why it was the kikes' fault.
Please keep posting solid content, though
