I need help in drawing to scale for landscaping purposes. If the dimension is any more complicated than a 10 x 10 square, I can't seem to get the scale right. I need Drawing to Scale for Dummies.
Help.
To create a CAD drawing, a few key elements are necessary: CAD Software – A program like AutoCAD, Revit, or SolidWorks is needed to design and draft the drawing digitally. Accurate Project Data – Dimensions, measurements, site details, material specifications, and design requirements must be collected beforehand. Hardware Setup – A reliable computer, large monitor, and sometimes a CAD workstation or graphic tablet for smoother drafting. Drafting Standards – Industry codes, layering systems, line types, and annotation styles must be followed for clarity and compliance. Skills & Knowledge – The user must understand technical drawing principles, scaling, and the discipline-specific requirements (architecture, mechanical, electrical, etc.). Review & Validation – Checking the drawing for accuracy, clashes, and compliance before final approval. In simple terms, creating a CAD drawing needs the right software, correct project data, proper setup, technical knowledge, and quality checks to ensure the drawing is useful and accurate.
There are a number of commercial and bespoke software programs for CAD.
Here i say. What do we have here. The drawing is drawn i see. The cad is new. What does that mean. Could it be, that i am afraid to see. How about that. Cad is better than drawing but drawing is better than cad. You see, if you draw then you draw, if you cad then its cad. No need for skills just the computer mind is you. But you are not you unless you draw it by you. So is it really you. Solely down to you. No denying.

To set up drawing template parameters in CAD, first open the desired template file and access the "Settings" or "Options" menu. Define parameters such as units, scaling, and title block information, ensuring they match your project requirements. Customize layers, line types, and dimension styles as needed, then save the template for future use. Finally, test the template by creating a sample drawing to confirm all settings function as intended.

deep drawing....
cad is a 2d drawing then use cam the laser cutter and turn it into a 3d model
The purpose of 3d cad software programs is for computer drawing, 3D modelling and realistic creation. You can read about this program at www.freebyte.com/cad/cad.htm
from the floor plan by drawing the vertical line from it
You will notice that the Auto CAD drawing screen has many parts to it and can be somewhat confusing at first. There is a bar on the top of the screen which is a standard Windows feature. This identifies the fact that the program running in the "window" is AutoCAD and lists the name of the current drawing. If you have not saved the drawing yet, AutoCAD simply calls it "Drawing".
