   Hi Guys,
I am working with cad since last 2-3 years. I am electrical tech so i prepare drawings for electrical substations.
Till now i am just using old drawings from someone and make necessary changes to fulfil my job. I have never defined my own layers or blocks etc.
But now i am thinking of creating my own layers, blocks and all small things that you need to prepare set of drawings.
I am also very much interested in learning 3D. My office has cad mechanical software and i am in canada.
So please guide what course i should take or if there is any learn yourself books or sites.
In short i want to get organise & learn 3d but i am not sure where to start. Thanks for your thoughts.

	Online tutorials including those offered at the AutoDesk website would be good places to start to learn AutoCAD 3D. After-market books are another good resource. Check Amazon for a list of AutoCAD books. You could also look into training programs available on DVD. Are there any local colleges/universities offering AutoCAD-related courses in your area? Online tutorials can be found here: http://www.cadtutor.net/tutorials/ http://www.we-r-here.com/cad/index.htm http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=10947339&linkID=9240615 Edited by John Connor - 20.Apr.2011 at 12:02
