Paul,

  How long does it take for you to "kick out" one of these drawings? I'm
both impressed and jeolous.:-)

About two hours. It helps if you have a similar drawing to start with.
What also helps is using the last good operating system Microsoft
ever released. DOS! DOS extenders like ACAD 12 and Lotus R4
run lighting fast on a 200 MHZ processor, 32 meg memory and DOS.

Try it it you will like it.

When I can get ACAD or something better on Linux I will
switch to that. Solid Works looks great.

Don't get me wrong. DOS could have been much better but Gates
wanted to jam the windoze gui down our throats to make it too tough
for the competition like DR Dos to compete.

BTW you have probably heard about the MS Word macro virus going
around. If you get an attached  MS word doc file don't 
click on it or it will send the virus and one of your 
text files out to the first fifty people on your email list.
