Drawing Isometric Piping - page 6
Engineering Drawing of a complex pipe.

Note: again in this exercise you will draw directly in isometric.

Choose the straight line pencil tool and connect the following line segments constrained as noted:
Segment 1 = 30 degrees. Segment 2 = -30 degrees. Segment 3 = -90 degrees. Segment 4 = -60 degrees. Segment 5 = -30 degrees. Segment 6 = -60 degrees. Segment 7 = -90 degrees. Segment 8 = -30 degrees. Segment 9 = 30 degrees. Try to proportion your drawing as shown.
Use the Node Edit Tool (F10) to select in turn segments 2, 4, 6 and 8 and change them to curves with the Node Edit Roll-Up (Ctrl+F10). Then marquee select all of the nodes and smooth them.
