Introduction
Learning to create isometric drawings should be a pleasure at this point. There are very few new commands to learn, and anything you already know about manual isometric drawing makes it that much easier on the computer. Once you know how to get into the isometric mode in AutoCAD and change from plane to plane, you can rely on previously learned skills and techniques. Many of the commands from early chapters in this book will work readily, and you will find that using the isometric drawing planes is an excellent warm-up for 3D wireframe and solid modeling.
