1. How to Make an Isometric Drawing Duane Burtner, Instructor

2. Step 1 If the starting point is not given, begin your drawing about 1” up from the title block and 2/3’s across the page from the left margin

3. Step 2 From the starting point, draw lines 30 deg. to the left, 30 deg. to the right, and 90 deg. up with light construction lines.

4. Step 3 Place the length measurement on the “30 deg. to the left” line, the thickness measurement on the “30 deg. to the right” line, and the height measurement on the “90 deg. up” line

5. Step 4 Erase excess lines back to each mark.

6. Step 5 Draw construction lines 30 deg. to the left and 30 deg. to the right from the height mark.

7. Step 6 Draw lines 90 deg. up from both ends

8. Step 7 Erase excess lines back to each intersection.

9. Step 8 Draw construction lines 30 deg. to the left and 30 deg. to the right from each end until they intersect. Convert all construction lines to object lines
