Drafting

Course material for AutoCAD, Fusion360, and RevIt.

I start with 3D Solid Modeling and 3D Printing, and end with 2D Architectural Design (3D in Level 2 & 3).

You should have received an “invite” email from Autodesk, set up by me.

Register, Download and Install Fusion360:

On the school computers, you MUST use the install file in the folder:
“DATA (i:) \Fusion 360 Client“

INTRODUCTION

Before we get into this, I want to be very clear on some expectations:

RESPECT

  • Everyone deserves to be treated with respect. You, Me, even little Billy.
  • You get a LOT further in life if you treat others with respect.
  • Politeness is my Kryptonite; I have a really hard time saying “no” to polite.
  • Your Work Habit mark will reflect this.

ATTEND

  • This is a “hands-on” course; you cannot succeed if you are not here. You can’t get paid if you ain’t there.
  • You are expected to be ON TIME, and attend class for the DURATION of class.
  • Your Letter Grade will indirectly reflect this.
  • Your Work Habit mark will reflect this.

TRY

  • Don’t be a Quitter; Quitters never prosper.
  • Give me your effort, I will give you my help.
  • I will NEVER give you a task that you cannot do.
  • Everybody makes misteaks; life is full of them. What matters is how you DEAL with mistakes.
  • Your Work Habit mark will reflect this.

PRODUCE

  • If you don’t do the work, you don’t get paid. Pure and simple. This is LIFE.
  • Your Letter Grade will reflect this.
  • Your Work Habit mark will reflect this.

FOLLOW INSTRUCTION

  • ALL of us have to do what we are told, even ME.
  • You don’t stay employed if you cannot follow instruction.
  • Be “teachable.”
  • Your Letter Grade will likely reflect this.
  • Your Work Habit mark will reflect this.

MAKE YOURSELF EMPLOYABLE

  • WORK HABITS are FAR more important than your GRADES.
  • WORK HABITS are WAY more important than your GRADES.
  • WORK HABITS are MUCH more important than your GRADES.

I’m hoping this isn’t new to you (but I’ll know pretty quick if it is).
