The Complete AutoCAD Course: 30 Days Drafting and Modeling

Master line and circle tools in AutoCAD, including center radius, center diameter, two-point, three-point, and tangent radius and tangent circle options. Practice rectangle and polygon commands with basic drawing.

Master rectangle creation and editing with length, width, area, rotation, chamfer, elevation, fill, thickness, and width options. Then explore polygon commands with inscribed or circumscribed circles and adjustable sides.

Practice basic drawing and editing in AutoCAD by constructing a simple shape with line, circle, and rectangle commands, setting circle radii, applying dimensions, trimming, and moving components.

Design a simple smiley-face symbol in AutoCAD by drawing circles for the head and eyes, using line commands with ortho mode, and trimming and mirroring to finalize.

Master ortho and polar modes in AutoCAD to create straight lines and angles. Use polar tracking, object snap, and grid and snap settings to control precision.

Master object snap and object snap tracking to place precise points (centers, midpoints, endpoints) using ortho and polar tracking for efficient AutoCAD drafting.

Master grid and snap settings in AutoCAD to draw precisely, adjust grid spacing and major lines, set snap spacing, and toggle grid mode with F7 and snap with F9.

Master precision staircase drawing in AutoCAD by leveraging grid mode, object snap, and auto mode, with ortho mode and polar tracking, using the line command and tracing to align points.

Learn to use the arc tool to draw curved lines, including three point arc and start center arc.

Master the ellipse tool in AutoCAD to create elliptical shapes by defining axis endpoints or a center, and adjust radii and start angles, and distinguish ellipses from circles.

Master polyline and spline tools in AutoCAD to design complex shapes; learn polyline as a single object, arc and width options, and spline fit, control vertices, and knots.

Design a dining table in AutoCAD using arc and ellipse, set units to inches, model chairs with rectangles, and convert components into reusable blocks with color and block editor tweaks.

Move and copy commands in AutoCAD teach precise object duplication, using base point, displacement distance, and optional array under ortho mode.

Master rotate and scale commands in AutoCAD to adjust object orientation and size. Navigate base points, absolute angles, and reference or copy options for precise transformations.

Use the AutoCAD mirror command to create a mirror copy of a selected object, optionally erase the source, and define the mirror line with two points.

Modify a floor plan in AutoCAD by moving and copying it, measuring wall thickness with dimension linear, and increasing thickness from four to five inches using scale with a reference.

Master the AutoCAD offset command to create parallel lines, concentric circles, and parallel curves with a chosen distance, including inside or outside offsets and multiple applications.

Learn to trim and extend in AutoCAD, removing excess parts and extending edges to meet other objects. Use TR and X with various selection methods.

Master the fillet command in AutoCAD to create rounded edges and connect tangent arcs in 2D and 3D. Apply radius, trim, and multi-fillet techniques to refine corners efficiently.

Refine a building layout in AutoCAD using offset and trim commands to set architectural units in inches, draw walls and rooms, and place door openings.

Learn to create and manage layers in AutoCAD, apply colors and line types, and control visibility with on/off, freeze, isolate, lock, and current layer settings.

Apply color to objects in AutoCAD using solid, donut, gradient, and region commands, filling rectangles, triangles, and circles while selecting colors from the properties toolbar for visual differentiation.

Discover how to customize line types and line weights in AutoCAD, load and apply gas line styles, and assign types by layer or block to control visibility and thickness.

Create a disc wall on a dedicated layer using the donut command to form a 100 mm outer, 75 mm inner ring in yellow, then place and copy to toilets.

Create and modify multileader objects in AutoCAD, including arrowhead, landing, and text, and explore content type, size, and style options.

learn how to use multilayer operations in AutoCAD to add and remove leaders, align multi leaders, and collect them into a straight line for organized drawings.

Use the multi leader style command to create and modify AutoCAD multi leader styles, adjusting arrowhead size, text height, and leader lines via the style manager.

Create and modify multi leader objects in a floor plan, including adding and removing leaders, and changing arrowhead size, text height, and style.

Explore how the ray command in AutoCAD creates a line that starts at a point and extends to infinity in one direction, serving as a reference to construct other objects.

Discover how construction lines create infinite-length references in AutoCAD, enabling horizontal, vertical, angle, bisect, and offset options that guide other objects.

Learn how to use the AutoCAD join command to combine end-to-end lines into a single two-dimensional or three-dimensional object, including how to access J, select objects, and ensure same axis.

Create a section view of a bedroom floor plan in AutoCAD using construction lines and vertical view; set wall, floor, and false ceiling heights with offsets.

Learn how to add single line text in AutoCAD, set height and rotation, use the command line and ribbon options, and explore left, center, and right justification and text style.

Create and format multi-line text in AutoCAD using the M text command from the annotate tab. Adjust height, justification, line spacing, rotation, and font style to craft precise paragraphs.

Configure text style in AutoCAD using the text style command to adjust font name, bold option, height, and italic options for single line text.

Create a business card in AutoCAD by drawing a rectangle, placing a logo, and adding multi line text with configurable fonts and colors.
