Engineering Drawing of a machined bracket. Note that there are two distinct objects. Although the base and side are joined it will be quicker to create them separately and join them later. |

Let’s create the base first. Use the rectangle tool (F6) to produce a rectangle 1" high by 3" long by watching the status line and dragging across the page. You can use the Property Bar to correct minor errors only. Next choose the Node Edit (F10) tool to completely round the ends and then convert this to curves (Ctrl+Q). Delete the double nodes at the round ends and then add a node with the + sign in the Node Edit Roll-up. Use the rectangle tool (F6) to produce a rectangle 1.25" high by 2" long by watching the status line and dragging across the page. Use the Property Bar to correct size. |
