2D Dimensioned Drawing Examples – Part 2

Even drawings that seem complicated will become easier with enough practice — try drawing these examples to test your skills and drawing speed.

Another drawing example that can be simplified using the MIRROR command

Some drawings that look a bit more complex can be simplified with the MIRROR command, thanks to their symmetry.

Drawings suitable for exercises and exam questions at technical universities and vocational/technical high schools

Example drawings you can use when explaining dimensioning rules in technical drawing

Above, we see an entry-level example you can use for your AutoCAD/SolidWorks practice.

Also ideal examples for traditional hand-drawn technical drawing practice.

Another dimensioned technical drawing exercise

Another technical drawing example you can draw using AutoCAD commands like CIRCLE, ARC, FILLET, and MIRROR

Another example you can use for toolpath-generation exercises in your CAD/CAM work

Above we see an example related to the AutoCAD commands CIRCLE, OFFSET, TRIM, and ARRAY.

Dimensioned drawing examples that teachers can also use when preparing exams

You can use these dimensioned 2D drawings to improve your AutoCAD skills.

2D drawings you can use in technical drawing software training, such as AutoCAD and SolidWorks

Remember, the way to draw quickly — especially in CAD software — is through plenty of practice. After a while, you’ll develop different techniques for drawing fast. You’ll notice you can draw things in a few minutes that once looked difficult.

As the number of examples you draw increases, you’ll notice you’re developing your drawing logic and drawing faster.
