• Draw the front view only
• Engineering units
• Dimension precision to 4 units after the decimal

• Use the TTR option for drawing a circle for the 4 arcs then trim as needed.

11-10 Instructions:

• Follow the book example, you don't have to use the snap and grid but you might find it helpful.
• Do not draw the isometric 3D model in the corner.
• Include all dimensions, precision to 3 places.
• Include hidden and centerlines at a proper scale.

3. trim as necessary to make it appear that one spoke is above the other
4. do the array

17-6 Instructions (no image for the exercise):

Text book exercise, follow the problem in the book

Caution:

There are some typos and mistakes in the book so follow this procedure:

1. Do not use the "Wizard" setup, use your template drawing.
2. Go to your pull down menu and choose "Format" then select "Drawing Limits".  Watch the command line and set the lower left to the default of 0',0' and the uppper left to 120', 90'. 
3. Go to your pull down menu and choose "Format" then select "Units".  Set your units to "Architectural" with a precision of 1/2 inch.
4. If you choose to use the "grid" and "snap" settings set those to 2' by right clicking on either the snap or grid on the status bar below your drawing.
5. Your first point (lower left) of your property should start at 10',10' not 10,10 (inches) as the book suggests. 
6. Figure 17-1 shows a dimension from the property line on the x axis in the upper right corner of 21', it should read 20'.
7. Follow the book examples from this point forward. 
8. Once you are done check to see if west corner of your house is 5' 2-1/2 inches from the property line.  This is an indicator to see if you scaled, stretched and rotated your house properly.  If it is not you should probably back up or better yet start over.  At this point it would be easier to restart it than to try and fix it.
9. Print out on 11 x 17 inch paper (tabloid).  You'll have to create this "layout" in paper space.

Text book exercise, follow the problem in the book, use centimeters.
 

19-4  Instructions (worth 3, 30 points)

Create a title block

• Must have a simple but readable logo
• Two diffrent text styles
• Three different text sizes
• Two different line thicknesses as shown
• Must contain at least the following elements:
• Organization name 
• Sheet title
• Date
• Scale
• Units
• Make your border around your drawing the same thickness as your title block and the same color then place it behind your "viewport" layer.

20-10 (worth 2 drawings, 20 points)

• Print on a 11 x 17 inch sheet (Tabloid)
