Chapter 7 – Isometric Drawings In this assignment, we are going to look at creating isometric drawings with AutoCAD. These drawing appear to be three dimensional but they are not. An AutoCAD isometric drawing is a 2 dimensional drawing just like a paper drawing. AutoCAD provides some tools to aid us in creating the drawing, but not very many. Mostly, we will be using the same commands that we used in creating orthographic drawings. We are going to draw the figure shown on the right. We will use the dimensions shown on the figure and make a drawing that is dimensionally correct as we have done in the past. We will start by drawing an isometric box that makes up the main body of the object. From there, we will add the semicircular hole at the bottom and the half cylinder at the top. The first thing we need to do is to put AutoCAD in the isometric mode. This mode is entered through the SNAP command. SNAP ON/OFF/Rotate/Stype 1.000 S {Put into isometric mode} Standard/Isometric I Vertical Spacing 1.000 .4 SNAP ON/OFF/Snap OFF {Stop snapping to grid points} Now we can draw the left face of the box. Use the LINE command and click on the lower right corner of the right face of the box. We will use polar coordinates to make the lines at 30 degree angles. LINE From Point: {Click on the screen where you want the object to start} To Point: @5150 To Point: @2.590 To Point: @5330 To Point: C Start here Isometric Drawings in AutoCAD – R Greenlee P a g e | 1 Next draw the right
