AutoCAD/AUTOCAD TUTORIAL
Expert: Bob - 11/12/2006
QuestionHi bob ,
can u help me finding free step by step guide to learn autocad.
AnswerHi -- you could look online for AUTOCAD TUTORIALS, AUTOCAD FREE LESSONS, etc etc.
However, I am going to tell you that unless you just want to mess with it for a hobby, this would be a very very poor idea, PARTICULARLY when a used book might be very cheap, if your AutoCAD is not the latest.
Briefly, self-taught people waste tons of time and make poor employees. Starting with a course is much better (community college???) but very sharp people who are very strong at drafting may be OK with using a book or paid online lessons.
Also AutoCAD is used in hundreds of ways, so questions that do not begin with, for instance, "I am an architecture student in XYZ town" or "I want a job in a machine shop" -- for instance, are hopeless for me to answer well.
If you will write back with your experience level, your age, your profession, your purpose for AutoCAD, which release of AutoCAD you have access to.........
Then I can suggest more specifics.
