  1. Introduction to EngineeringIntroduction to 2-D CAD Reference – CADKEY Project Book Chapter 3 – Creating Basic 2-D Geometry

  2. Agenda • Create basic 2-D shapes – circles, lines, rectangles • Edit lines and arcs • Change display scale

  3. Saving CAD files • Seed Drawing – blank drawing that saves all the default values you want set – used to start new drawing or refresh values • PART file - CADKEY drawing files are called PART files (Save [to store] and Open [to retrieve]) .PRT extension • PATTERN file – a file that can be added to a current drawing without disturbing what is currently in the work area (Export [to store] and Import [to retrieve]) .PTN extension

  4. Preview of Concepts Introduced in Chapter 3 – Very Basic 2-D CAD • Creating circles, lines and rectangles • Editing lines and arcs • Saving and printing drawings

  5. Follow Chapter 3 – Print FERD TRUCK with Title Block

  6. Summary • Created circles – using center and diameter; Other methods to draw circles – explore! • Copied entities; Other Xform tools available – explore! • Created a string of lines • Edited Entities – Trimming Tool; Other forms of trimming available – explore! • Concepts of levels and Level List dialog box

  7. Assignment #23: • Create the 2-D Pick-up truck shown on page 71 of the CADKEY book. • Put your title block around it. • Provide a printout of your drawing and include all necessary information in the title block.

  8. For More Practice • If you would like more practice, there are practice drawings available at the end of Chapter 3 of the CADKEY Project Book
