Apropos of almost nothing, I just rediscovered my favorite article on
the tenuous relationship between CAD and design:

I like the article The main reasons I use CAD is I am a klutz with a
pencil and I prefer storing the drawings on CD-ROM. One of my pet peeves
with a lot of CAD users is they have no idea how to sensibly dimension a
drawing.


Gotta get over to the lathe now and make some parts for my canopy
latches and my aunt's espresso machine...

Thanks, and best regards to all

There's always my preferred method: visualize, make a part, make one
that w**ks,
if needed make a pretty one THEN make the drawing. This way you can be
assured the
drawing will make a w**king part. The question could arise whether the
part serves
a practical purpose, but I think we can forgo that discussion for now.
