Well done Bob

I thought this was Doom Builder for a second.

Got some annotations?

Now let me to do it in GIS
RosieGarden
Yeah, it's clever and all, but the fact that it's splines triggers me. Polylines of gtfo.
Justwanttomakecomments
Nice. Now sculpt it in Zbrush?
robotaudio
I would love a copy of the DXF so I can run this on a laser cutter and engrave it into acrylic for my desk!
SneekyCheeky
i can do that in about 10 minutes with the help of 2 commands. you know you can convert pictures to cad?
SneekyCheeky
no diss for the effort, tho.
LatheNightBob
I donno about as "cad" but I've ran it thru to pop out some vector cut files, there's loads of examples on YT on how to do it with fusion

Please do it.

Going to copy and paste my meme onto an photo of an etch-a-sketch, thanks for the idea *laughs in upvotes*

Here's pencil and paper?

As a CAD nerd, this was probably traced from an image. thats how i would have done it.
McSwansonDingleBalls
No do it in Revit!
FrostyOblivion
Having used AutoCAD myself, I can honestly say this was either extremely difficult, or stupidly fast and easy for them. No middle ground.
Haiddon
either way, it's impressive
schrodingersasymmetric12gauge
Just trace in Illustrator, open in cad and clean up.

Prolly attached jpeg and traced with polylines.
TheBlueMuppet
Agree.
monicakes
fellow architect?
FrostyOblivion
Negative. My father has worked in the design field of various types of construction most of his life, using AutoCAD and other software.
FrostyOblivion
His current company designs huge fountains for companies and resorts. Has a personal copy of AutoCAD through the company that I can use.
firefighter26
Been years since I worked with Autocad, but I can fully agree with this statement!
LiteralNazi
Can confirm, absolutely no middle ground.
aduckwithgrapes
Im going to say stupidly fast and easy. Id imagine he just inserted the image in Cad and traced it. It's still well done though.
Stanbob
This
natemangreen6
You would not even need to do that you can convert pictures to dhx files and just open them
paseo1997
Open image in inkscape, Trace bitmap, Save as .dxf, open in AutoCAD.
xanderAnimal
Working between autocad and revit at the moment and I agree with this comment.

I'm trying to find a good way to export a model from Inventor to Revit... Surprised how different the environments are. =\
TheOleRizzleDizzle
Easier to just build the family in revit imo
cbale2000
Not when you already built it in Inventor :'(
sway85
Good luck with that
gekkepoes
If he still has the scematics, we can now make 3D prints of it, or cut it out with laser in a metal plate.
TechinTeacher
Autodesk Inventor now allows users to create CAM files for CNC machines instead of using something like edgeCAM
ChristopherTallant
I have to ask, how long did this take?
elgrapadura
At least tree fiddy!
Stanbob
Around an hour, there's a pen like tool I used to just trace over the original.
lonepinkranger
Stick in Illustrator, Image trace and export as dwg file is a little quicker
JanMichaelVincentQuadrant16
Share the DXF file with the peeps
givemeyourwalletbagpursemanbag
We have to see a perspective version of this.... or 3D o.o

koalagijtze
can you start with "the gif"?
ChristopherTallant
Okay.. I was going to say, if you did this with a SpaceBall.....
Squelchtone
Have you ever used a SpaceNavigator? hnnnnng https://www.amazon.com/3Dconnexion-3DX-700028-SpaceNavigator-3D-Mouse/dp/B000LB7G00
ChristopherTallant
We have these, the older, larger ones.. and then the traditional balls.. I haven’t seen a tablet yet.
GregoriusDaneli
Wait... you can use AutoCAD without a SpaceBall?
LemonFondler
But the true question is how long will it take to cut
cyanidkatharsis
Your weapon, weel keel.
legofham
At least six
pegmis
Of what unit of measure? Hours? Minutes? Catapults? Swords?
NachoPete
Yes.
WholesomePyromaniac
I would say probably 7.
souleater2847
