Yesterday we did an AutoCAD assignment. We were asked to draw centerboard and rudder according to an existing plan in AutoCAD. Our drawing should include several different layers for lines, dim, text and we need to make new layout in paper space to display our drawing in right scale.
The assignment included five stages:
1.Sketch. We need to sketch the plan on paper, copy necessary information from the original plan. I think this is the most important part. The sketch will tell you what to draw. It provides basic information for the assignment.
2. Drawing in AutoCAD. Follow instructions of the assignment, create different layers, create drawing from the sketch.
3. Print out draft.
4. Mark out. Check your draft with Chris, and to see if there is any mistakes. Mark them out, and then go back to your computer and fix them in AutoCAD.
5. Print the final drawing.
At 4 pm, we handed in our marked out draft and the final drawing to Chris.
Wei good blog can you upload your CAD drawing to your blog .... just the final version as jpeg .... and maybe outline what comments you received from Chris?

How is it?
Wei you have set out the process of your assignment very well.
As Vickel has commented on uploading your drawings I will say no more on this, as I'm sure that you can do this task with ease.
I would like to thank you for helping out others many times in the CAD lab, during the short time we had to cover AutoCAD. All the students I'm sure would agree with me here in saying this.
Cheers
