Why would you PM a complete stranger to tell them you're gay?

Weirdo.

I guess it's different in AUS, but here autocad is slang for m4m

This proves nothing except that some people are dumb/slow learners.

I know plenty of people who have taken courses for things which I (and just about anyone) can learn easily with only the help of tutorials, books or even just the user documentation.

Here at my university we use Solid Edge and NX created by the UGS company which has a parent company here in Huntsville and it's a pretty badass piece of software. W/ Autocad does it work w/ both 3d and 2d, or is it just 2d modeling? CAD wasn't too hard to learn at all, but we had entirely 3D modeling to work with so it made it pretty easy to visualize

I took AutoCad in highschool for a drafting class (aka where I got my awesome handwriting skills)

My brother just went to a technical school got a degree in it and is going to Miami Dade College to take more classes.

He just got a job 16.50 with lil experience. (benefits and they pay for school)

Look around and goodluck!

AutoCAD is quite easy once you get started. The hardest thing I would imagine, is getting used to thinking in terms of three dimensions. I already went in there with some 3D modeling experience, so I was good to go.

I taught myself when I graduated in 05. My summer consisted of..

1. waking up around 10am
2. 1 hour of autocad(1 chapter out of the large autocad book)
3. running about 5km
4. going to many different restaurant for good food at great lunch prices with friends
5. basketball

well I repeated this for about almost two months and my first job on the interview I was forced to use autocad and well got the job! Plus I was in decent shape with step 3.

The best analogy of autocad is it is MSPaint with 1000 options. You only need to known about 10% (line,ortho,radius..)of those options and along the way you will learn the other 90%(layout,leaders,xref,blocks) (Autodesk Discussion forums)

PS. You will become friendly with your mouse and keyboard as well

Originally posted by Sunsnail I need to learn it for a job making the little blue print things of houses for construction people. Can anyone point me in the right direction to learn more? I know how to draw accurate length lines and can do them at accurate angles. That's about it!

autocad is really easy

just turn direct input on and type the exact length and angle. there's no other way to do it
