"I remember the first time I had sex – I kept the receipt."
That's great! I'll send you over some as-builts and our designs standards, do you think you can have these 3 projects finalized for me by 5:30pm today? Thanks!
You goin to NP tonight? I just might burn a CD for you...
Hahah.. aren't you funny, lol... btw I jsut learned how to hatch, lol

Ahhhh the good old days of AUTO CAD. I think that I still have my books from Advance Auto CAD.... But good job on your window.
GOOOOOOOO SOCA WARRIORS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
http://www.cben.net is a good resource for predrawn blocks, just about anything you can think of...
wow..nice.. hatch AND windows lol...
instead of practicing squares, how about get some complex 2d objects, replicate them, then move to iso views of complex objects. Good luck with your auto-cad endevour. And dont worry, your still gonna suck a year from now..lol
What firm do you work for?
"The 1911 is a collection of subsystems that must work together. Each part must be prepared and fit properly not only in and of itself, but also with regard to the other parts with which it must operate for the gun to function and appear as desired."
well good.. we have people on Acad for 15-20years now, and them old peeps still show me a trick every once in a while, but i show them tricks also.
good luck, and you will get the basics fairly quick and feel like your getting somwhere, then youll remember your still clicking the buttons for the tools lol and realize your slow. like i said, with a year of hard work, you might be decent. I have 7 years on CAD (since 9th grade) and I am decently quick. Speedminded is very smart in CAD, but I think thats all his job consists of?? I cant remember...
remember, left hand types, and NEVER leaves the keyboard.. right hand chills on the mouse and never leaves

exactly, i type all my commands...hit F1 and search Alias for a complete list of commmands and shortcuts. Menu's and icons require thinkingwell good.. we have people on Acad for 15-20years now, and them old peeps still show me a trick every once in a while, but i show them tricks also.

BUT it's not all fun and games until you're drawing/designing something you're interested in though. All day long, commercial architectural design aka "store planning". Get shitty as-builts drawn on toilet paper with lipstick or napkins and crayons and try to make some sense out of it
Pictures = pricless... lol
we do mostly Krogers. and the project architects have 100s of photos for each store. Im glad im not on that side of the company any more.. w00t

lol...some drafters....i have one year work experience, a diploma in drafting from lanier tech, and about 6-7 years total experience with autocad, and a year's experience with inventor and microstation...little with solidworks...still can't find a drafting job, lol...
PSN SN= dartingd
i have 12 years CAD, 10+ years AutoCAD "experience", with 7 years work experience...civil and architectural and i still don't know what i wanna do
lol....i just needa job right now...my sales job at the carpet store is over first week of august, so i gotta figure somethin out...it wasn't just me not sellin...the vp of the company hasn't been selling...it's pretty competitive out there in commercial flooring...
PSN SN= dartingd
tell me about it...I have has as much time on audoCAD as you two but i have had some time on it.....more on the GD side but autoCAD is in there too...
Okay, so I told a little white lie. I said that I knew AutoCad, sure sure I can do that... Just BSing my way through a meeting basically. Well I got caught. Now I have to design "something" in autocad, and have no idea how to use it. I am good with computers, and figured I could find my way around, but now see that you can't...
Any advice on how I can become slightly familiar with this program, in the quickest shortest amount of time????
Here, hold my beer!
There's a big redish book that's over 1,000 pages long...memorize and understand every word and sentence and you'll be ok.
Hahaha The AutoCAD Bilble... Thats what I am learing from, lol

O crap...
cliff notes, online, before noon???

Umm.. i dont know enough about it to know what I am really talking about.. lol... It took me half a day to figure out how to draw a line and find the midpoint on that line.. so Im not the one that can help, lol... sorry

o well, it was worth a shot.... guess I'll keep trying to bs? Maybe throw my PC against the wall? "it just quit working, I dunno why"...

I've had girls BS me about AutoCAD just to come over..."Yeah, i know how to use it...but can you teach me more?" ...lolol. *shakes head* Seems like i would've learned after the second time they couldn't draw a line or figure out how to turn the osnap on to find the midpoint
So how did it go? Did you BS enough to get by lol?!
