Autocad 2017 3d Training Manual
Wrote: Hi, I am not aware of any specific PDFs on 3D training in AutoCAD. I found this article that might be a start. When I did some Internet searching, I found that most articles come from EDU Institutions.
Have you considered taking some actual coursework from a ACT or from a school? Some of the curriculum might be exactly what you are looking for. Let me know if you need some URLs Please select the Accept as Solution button if my post solves your issue or answers your question. John, first, thank you for your search, well appreciated. Let me expand on my reason for looking for a PDF. Maybe I should have mentioned this in my post. I have already done AutoCAD 3D some years ago; did well with pipes, tanks, fixtures, in both mechanical and architectural office practices.
This was some ten years ago. Now, I have forgotten most of the way around doing it the way I used to, due to the fact I moved to another office that did not use 3D.
So, now, I just need to 'brush' up on 3D again to get back into the groove. On such note, I was just looking for PDFs to go through quickly. I have the one in your link, and many others also.
I currently have about four I am using, but none is for the more current version of AutoCAD, but can still get around easily. However, the main reason why I need to get back to my 3D experience is because I am about to start learning Revit Architecture. I have the 2018 Revit and a very good book on it.
So, if I don't get back in the groove of the AutoCAD 3D, I will not after getting into Revit. An analogy would be learning how to drive a car with an automatic system and going to try to drive a manual transmission. Hopefully I will be done with my 3D practices this weekend then start on Revit by next week. In conclusion, I think I am fine now with the PDFs I have. Thanks again John.
