Projections
Isometic projections
Key points
Isometic projection is the one you are most likely to use.
Definition
A simple way to represent 3D objects in a drawing that shows three views - front, top, side. The verticle lines are vertical, but the horizontal lines are drawn at 30° to the base line.
Remember:
- Everything we make starts as a square or rectangular box that we then 'hack' pieces off to get the shape we want.
- We use isometic projections to show the shape of what we plan to make. We do not manufacture from these drawings, so there are no dimensions. You may use any scale you like.
