Learn AutoCAD 2D From Absolute Zero. Read more.
My first experience with Solidworks was in high school when I was taught different 3D CAD softwares including Solidworks. After high school I continued to develop my skills at University where I earned Master degree in Mechanical Engineering. At University I was already working part time as a Solidworks designer. After University I started working as a full-time Solidworks designer, designing welding resistance machines. After 3 years designing welding machines I started freelancing and
