This book uses the following features to help you build the basic foundation needed to become a successful CAD operator:
- Provides a true step-by-step approach that guides you through the learning process in a friendly and effective way
- Teaches you one efficient method, instead of overwhelming you with multiple ways to do the same thing, so you can quickly become a productive CAD operator
- Takes you from opening the AutoCAD® program for the first time to creating your own personal AutoCAD® template and using it to generate professional engineering drawings
- Teaches you to use the basic drawing, editing, and text tools in an integrated approach that combines learning-related operations and commands together to make them easier to remember
- Uses practical, real-world assignments in which you apply the concepts you learned to projects that new CAD operators could expect to see in their jobs
Terry Metz combines 21 years of practical engineering experience (working as a drafter, application specialist, sales engineer, and engineering consultant) with 12 years of current teaching experience (responsible for both the AutoCAD® and mechanical engineering programs at a two-year technical college) to provide a sound educational approach to learning AutoCAD®.
