Iso's in AutoCAD are honestly the same thing as a sketch on an isopad. A CAD drafting program can be set up to produce very quick iso's once you have done it enough times but the time it takes would be the same I would imagine. Hand sketched iso's is very fast and simple once you have the the info and not sure a CAD application can beat the time and effort for simple iso's to hand off to a pipe fitter. Is this truly the program I need or is there another AutoCad type program geared specifically for pipe drawings that have a library of piping and valve components? Thanks ! Since I've always used 30/60 isometric paper and draw to scale it's very quick to whip out a pencil and straight rule and pop out a drawing.
But I'm finding at the moment I can still hand draw an iso quicker than I can do one with AutoCad Mechanical. Without much experience with AutoCad I still thought this was going to be the cure all alternative to countless hours of hand drawing isometric pipe drawings.
Recently my employer gave me access to AutoCad Mechanical 2017. For most of my career I have hand drawn all piping isometric drawings affiliated with my projects. I have almost 30 years experience as a pipe fitter, job planner, and pipe designer.
