Both of those could be easily drawn using the program you have.... AutoCAD 2010.  Why don't you try.

Stuck how?  Looks like a couple of circles, some arcs and a few straight lines.  It isn't that difficult.  Don't you have any dimensions to work off of?

For the circles I dont have. The side of the circle, is it just straight line? I think it's more than that.

You don't have any dimensions at all?Are you a student?

Well without a close up view I'm only guessing here but it looks like the cable is being supported in a clamp-on saddle that is bolted to a horizontal support arm that is turn is bolted to the wall of the concrete vault.  You should be able to mock up something that comes close to that.  Seems pretty easy to me.

[QUOTE=manticore24]Nope..I'm a beginner in autocad..[/QUOTE]So why all the urgency then?  Just mock something up even if it isn't exactly to scale.  Make a "guesstimate" of the sizes.

You said you weren't a student in a previous post.  So, how is it that you need to "pass it today"?It sounds to me like you are a student who got an assignment and waited until the last moment to do it.  And you did not ask the instructor for any additional information because you really did not look at the assignment close enough to know some information wasn't provided.Does that accurately describe the situation?

This took all of five minutes and that's without any dimensions to work with.Basically, draw half the cable support then mirror it.

I think you would learn more if you drew it yourself.  It isn't that difficult.  Anyway, mine was done in imperial units and I did not use true sizes (everything is a guess) so it really wouldn't be of any use to you other than a pretty picture.A project for whom?

You call that a reply?  Sorry but you'll get nothing in the way of sympathy from me.  Man up and do the drawing dude.  It is not that difficult.  You want difficult?  Try drawing the same thing in 3D and include the threads on the bolts and the chamfers on the bolt heads and nuts.

Did you finish the drawing yet or are you still sulking?
