AutoCAD Simplified Complete Beginners Course (FROM SCRATCH)

Learn the AutoCAD interface and workspace basics, from starting a drawing to using the command line, dynamic input, grid and snap, selection, and saving drawings.

Master drawing lines in AutoCAD by entering absolute and relative coordinates via the command line, using dynamic input and ortho mode for precise, controlled geometry.

Create circles by specifying center points, radius or diameter, and use circle through three points, while constructing polylines with adjustable width, and adding arcs to build precise AutoCAD drawings.

Learn to draw ellipses with a center and axis distances, and to create polygons and rectangles by inscribing or circumscribing in a circle, or using coordinates and dimensions.

Master AutoCAD arcs using three-point, start-center, and start-center-angle methods. Specify start, center, and end points, set angles and radii, and master counterclockwise arc curvature.

Apply fillet and chamfer in AutoCAD by selecting lines, setting radii, and using multiple selections. Adjust chamfer distances and trims to create joined edges and precise bevels.

Learn to create a four-room floor plan in AutoCAD from scratch by configuring layers, setting wall thickness to 15, and drawing walls, rooms, openings, and basic doors and windows.

Learn to place doors and windows in a floor plan by drawing 100-unit openings, converting to blocks, and inserting with proper wall thickness using rotate, mirror, and copy.

Learn to create accurate floor plans in AutoCAD by applying text and dimensions, using hatch patterns, managing layers, and inserting blocks for furniture and bathroom fixtures.

Create an electrical work layer, insert electrical symbols as blocks from existing drawings, and connect components with precise scaling, rotation, and wiring in AutoCAD.

Master orthographic projection by constructing front and top views in AutoCAD, using layers, center and hidden lines, and construction lines to form circles, rectangles, and a half cylinder, with trimming.

Learn to create the top and side views using projection lines, center lines, and construction lines, align features at 45 degrees, and apply dimensions for height, depth, and length.

Learn how to build an orthographic drawing in AutoCAD from scratch by constructing centerlines, projection lines, circles with radii, offsets, and trims.

Switch to the modeling workspace and master 3D navigation with the view cube. Extrude a circle profile along the Z axis to form a cylinder and explore visual styles.

Explore boolean operations in AutoCAD, including union, subtract, and intersect, to join objects, remove material, and retain the common volume in 3D solids using solid editing tools.

Master region, extrude, and press-pull workflows to convert selected faces into solids, then use subtract to hollow features, aided by dynamic snap to place circles on the top plane.

Learn to model 3D parts in AutoCAD using region extrude, subtract, and press pull, then apply 3D edge fillet and chamfer for precise detailing.

Move objects along x, y, and z axes by set distances, rotate about each axis to 90 or 180 degrees, and align, union, and mirror 3D parts.

Practice UCS exercise in AutoCAD, selecting the left face, drawing and extruding the main shape, applying offsets, and using press pull to create a solid object, then explore isometric view.
