What easy software are you using to do sketches...
I am curious to find out what soft ware program MLU members are usuing to do nice clean mechanical drawings for eventual use by the metal fabricator who will cut and bend to size and let me do the assembly / welding.
After searching the web it seems that Fusion 360 ( a spin off of AUTODESK) is free for one year to hobbyist and it has a very complete and complex sketching section........ I wanted to school myself during the Covid months using U tube tutorials as a guide!!!!!!! Took me 3 days to figure out how to open the sketch section only... the hell with 3 D. It is way tooooooo complicated................ all I need is line drawings with angles, dimension, folding dotted lines, etc in 2 D.....would be so much neater than the hand drawn sketches I have sued in the past My 2B1 boxed is currently being rebuilt and would love to capture all the dimensions and post them on MLU.... maybe create a sticky for all the drawings we can accumulate for future reference..... I now realize that 2B1 fabrication dimensions are not very precise...... comparing three boxes I find at least 1/8 more or less and as much as 1/4 inch variation between the boxes. Is there a vaccine for computer stupidity???? Cheers
