Note from the Author
These tutorials have been written to support self-directed learning through hands-on practice with CAD. Users are strongly encouraged to take the time necessary to read through the explanations provided in these tutorials, rather than simply treating them as a recipe for producing a CAD drawing.

Competence with CAD will only be achieved once you have undertaken your own drawing or modelling tasks applying the techniques described in these tutorials.
