                                        CONNECTING ROD DRAWING

This drawing includes primary, secondary, and partial axillary views.  I used construction lines to create the angles and the offset tool to get the length for the angles.  I then made the cylinder and connected it to the top of the other side with lines and an arc.

To draw this I had to use a caliper to determine the measurements of each section of the object.  After I made the top view of the object I created the sectional view to make things clearer.  I then dimensioned both the top and sectional view of the object but forgot to put the hatch lines that tell you where the object was cut for the sectional view.

DRAWIG 10-47 BRASS ANCHOR PLATE

BRASS ANCHOR PLATE
This is my Brass Anchor Plate Drawing which was one of my first in AutoCAD.

To make this I first had to create a B-sized layout.  I then had to actually draw out the Anchor Plate in AutoCAD.  I then used the MTEXT command to add the number and letter pairs to the drawing.  After that I scaled it correctly in the view-port.  I then re-sized the view-port while making sure that the part stayed the correct size.  After I re-sized the view-port I inserted the table, picked my 0,0 point, and started dimensioning the part inside the table; for reference i dimensioned the entire length and width of the part.  For the parts that had the same dimensions and were right next to each other in the table I combined the cells and entered the number only once.  After I finished the Table I edited the information on the part and checked what it would loo like when it printed.  After I was satisfied that it was correct I printed the drawing out.
