Iso within Top View for Tech Drawings


G-FAB

Recommended Posts

I couldn't find an answer to this already posted (maybe because it's obvious to everyone else!) and I'm just about frustrated enough to ask for advice. I'm putting together parts drawings for clients and subcontractors and am having a hell of a time integrating my isometric solid drawing with my 2-D top-and-side view dimensional layout. I figured I could just rotate the solid 45 degrees on x and 35.264 degrees on z  it would read isometric from a top view...but things get squirrely when I try to xform rotate w/parts already at an angle; even when I rotate my WCS to mirror the first rotation. Since this is a pretty standard presentation for mechanical drawings (and because every chapter of the Mastercam tutorials starts with a similar drawing!) I'm sure there's a simple way to do this, but it has eluded me thus far. Any help is appreciated.
