Tackle a real-world project in AutoCAD 2013, drawing a cottage floor plan using the dimensions

given in a pencil sketch that was scanned as an image, in this workshop from AutoCAD expert and

author Scott Onstott. Follow along and see why he chooses certain tools, gain insight into his

drawing strategies, and watch him improvise as a missing dimension forces him to draw the plan

from a new direction. Along the way, learn how to work with layers and get practice adding doors,

windows, counters, fixtures, and appliances to a floor plan.

Topics include:

Starting the project

Drawing strategies

Fitting together the pieces of the puzzle

Completing the floor plan
