Who's behind this anyway?
Hi, I’m Erik, owner and developer of SimpleCAD. I am on a mission to help you learn how to improve you CAD skills and create drawings with less time and effort.
Before I first started learning CAD, back in the mid 80’s, I was drawing everything by hand. I remember how challenging it was to transition from pen and pencil, to then finally getting my very first CAD project out the door. Through time I discovered the best shortcuts to use so that one could successfully cut their work in half.
Over the last eight years, I’ve been busy at SimpleCAD, which has become a well known and trusted website for CAD. Prior to SimpleCAD, I have worked for many Engineers and Architects who had their own drawing standards and methods. I know some of the pitfalls of using CAD when you are new to it. I also know the challenges you may be faced with.
I really hope you take advantage of my cheatsheet. Pin it to your wall in you office so you can refer to it daily.
So kick it in gear and grab my PDF download. Learning these shortcuts will make your CAD life so much easier and accelerate your workflow at the same time. So what are you waiting for?
