TABLE OF CONTENTS Beginning AutoCAD 2010, Exercise Workbook is designed for classroom instruction or self-study. There are 30 lessons. Each lesson starts with step-by-step instructions followed by exercises designed for practicing the commands you learned within that lesson.
You may find the order of instruction in this workbook somewhat different from most textbooks. The approach I take is to familiarize you with the drawing commands first. After you are comfortable with the drawing commands, you will be taught to create your own setup drawings. This method is accomplished by supplying you with a drawing, "2010-Workbook Helper.dwg". This drawing is preset and ready for you to open and use. For the first 8 lessons you should not worry about settings, you just draw.

You will be able to print your exercises and view your results as you progress through the lessons.
