Today we’ll draw two isometrics.

Created by The University of North Texas in partnership with the Texas Education Agency

Start off with your graphic paper

You will start by “blocking in” the view, or drawing the “invisible box” that you will transfer the three view onto this box. You will create an isometric drawing that should look like this.

Remember to….

Always darken in your titleblock’s border.

Always neatly letter your text. Complete the self assessment rubric,

your teacher will double check this. Tomorrow you will draw more

complicated isometric’s but with less instructions just examples shown.

Textbook

Texas approved publishers are: Goodheart-Willcox Delmar Learning Prentice Hall

All have companion workbooks with more problems. I recommend using it or any other approved textbook, i.e., if you are ATC or TechPrep and must teach using local colleges textbook.
