AutoCAD Basic Tutorial for Beginners - Part 1 of 3 

Learn AutoCAD right from scratch and get a certificate of completion when you finish this completely free course sourcecad.com/courses/autocad-essentials-course/

The dislikes must be from various tech schools and colleges mad that people don't have to waste a year to learn what this brilliant man has taught everyone in an hour...keep up the amazing work!

I need to make an engineering drawing of a reactor in 5 days, and I've never used AutoCAD in my life. My dude, you delivered so much of what I needed to know in such a short time. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

May God bless this man's soul with an abundance of grace. I spent two days looking through autocad tutorials trying to learn what he showed in 17 minutes, and he still added more helpful tips on finding menus and short keys. Thank you for this!

While I often visit RU-vid for references/ tutorial videos on many things but giving a review is a rare phenomenon for me. However, this video is extremely commendable. Hence, deserved a golden comment. I got up & running on Autocad within 2 hours even though I had never ever used Autocad before this. This is 50 times better than the tutorial video created by Auto-Desk itself under the academy section. NO, THIS IS NOT a paid comment :)... Outstanding Job!!!.... Super recommended Autocad beginners.

I'm not usually one for watching youtube videos, I learn better while reading then I do visually, however! This is, by far, one of the greatest learning tools I've ever used. Its definitely been super helpful. Thank you so much and keep up the great work!

The whole series is very good. Every small things are explained in neat manner. Useful to boost confidence of beginer.Thank u so much sir!!

I studied Auto-Cad decades ago and have been using it ever since. I believe many college teachers don't keep up to date with the latest software and do not use the software professionally themselves so are not the best at teaching it. Also, the slow learners will slow down the whole class so often best to learn and practice from a video like this. Thanks

You explained basic of this AutoCAD in a lucid way. Thanks for making this wonderful video.

This is seriously a huge help for getting back into AutoCAD. Thank you so much for this!

This video is God sent! Cannot thank this person enough. I've been struggling to learn autocad and couldn't find anyone to guide me! Bless you!

Amazing! An amazing way of teaching. People would understand the basics of AutoCAD if go through these three videos. Guaranteed. Thanks.

This was actually extremely helpful. Was looking up Civil 3D tutorials but they kept stating to learn the basics of AutoCAD first. So here I am, and I feel this video was well-worth the time. Thank you!

for real this is so good to listen. Easy not bothering to repeat anything. I gotta admit this is the most suitable tutorial for me I've listen for a very long time. Great job!

This is the best tutorial video available on RU-vid. Your way of explaining is smooth and up to the point.

I am just fall in love with this guy as he's explaining every single little things like parents do with their kids just amazing i appreciate your work thank you so much♥️

I just watched this video. This greatly helped me to understand about autocad, especially for the success of my collage. Thank you very much, sir ^^

Thank you for this tutorial, I'm just started to study AutoCAD and I found your video and it helps. you are a good Teacher.

The level of your accent made your voice so clear that I understood every single word. The only CAD software I ever used was SolidWorks and this video taught me a lot.

I don't understand why someone would dislike this video. This is a great tutorial. Clear and step-by-step explanation.

This was SO helpful thank you! After trying several other videos this one finally made sense, perfect!

A great tutorial. At first, I didn't like the AutoCAD environment but when I saw this tutorial I see how useful software it is. thank you so much.

Thank you so much for this tutorial. Your explanations are very clear and concise. I'm a junior 3D artist and I'm planning on adding AutoCad to my skillset.

What an incredible opportunity to learn something to help on my home remodel. Thank you so much!

Well done SourceCAD, the tutorial is very useful for anyone starting to learn AutoCAD for the first time.

Im starting a new job on tomorrow and have used inventor for years but never touched autocad. This video has prepared me to act like i know what im doing!

Great tutorial! I don't get how a tutorial like this, clear, specific and concise can get dislikes. Man's out here teaching and doing the good work. There's literally nothing bad about the video😭

This is a godsend. I learnt this in school many years ago, but now that I am about to need it in a job, I was terrified because I forgot it all!

Watching this is making my first plan in mind easy.

Just had to say this tutorial and more importantly the instructor is absolutely amazing. So clear and so concise. Thank you so much for the tutorials.

amazing! i'm here for revision of autocad software, and learned the line angle trick which i was never taught in school. great job!

Very well explained, step by step and in detail. There are several tutorials on RU-vid for autocad but none have such clear explanations and a smooth flow. Definitely recommending these! Thankyou

Very Nice Tutorial, clear Audio and easy step by step guide. And most of all is that , his clips are nicely labeled ie part 1 of 3 and all have a timeline guide.

I am a new learner of Autocad 2020 and very happy after watching the video.The explanation was so good

Clear, concise, and complete. 1st rate video. If there was a yt video on how to make yt tutorial videos, this would be the example.

Hey man!!!! You're SUPERB. Really I need to learn Autocad. I work in another 3D softs and always I had diffucul0to learn it. With you I understand everything that you do and explain. THANKS SO MUCH

Thank you for making it in parts rather than one big chunk of info! Much less intimidating when it’s broken down this way👍

This video is absolutely detailed to follow with. Thank you!

literally subbed after the first three minutes, you a g, love you man

i started to learn autocad so i wouldn't have to draw with pencils, i thought autocad was gonna be a nightmare but you explain it so simply

I'm actually crying. I was on my 3rd week of the semester and fell so far behind. Your videos really helped me understand the basics of the software. I was able to get caught up on my assignments. Thank you so much❤😭

Thank you so much, I’ve actually been to a lot of lectures in my university classes and this is the first time I actually get it

Thank you so much friend. My certification(s) expired on me some time ago. I watched this video/series to brush up on my basics to get back in to the field. Bless you for making this content (and for FREE)!

Thanks Sir, Respect for doing a wonderful job!

Thank you so much. I've just started to learn Autocad and have found your video tutorials very helpful. It's always the gaining of confidence to begin using something new like this but I now feel ready to start working on my own projects.

Let me complete the whole series and I'm damn sure I'll be the moderate from the beginner. Thank you for all this.

Very thorough and basic video to get someone started. Great job and thank you!

thank you my indian brother. i have finally understood Autocad

Thank you so much for this series on AutoCAD. All the commands I need to design my patterns have been covered. You saved my time. Many thanks!

Thank you so much SourceCAD it's a clear explanation tutorial. More tutorials, please. Im following your vlogs.

I wish I could give you 100s of likes in 1 time it was first video of autocad I donot know what actually autocad is but I kept my connect with this video .Real teacher are that who can teach student who even not know what isA not those who need already prepared student just to make money ..great man and respect

the table of contents was extremely helpful

Honestly your content are blessings, I'm having online classes for AutoCAD in my uni atm and I swear I am not learning anything from them. Thank you so much for creating these, I learn way more from you!

Thank you for making this video. Your explanation is very clear and informative. Really helps a beginner like me.

After searching for long time i found the right place very easy and excellent loved this tutorial

You made me back on track on AutoCad after 15+ years. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful work

I'm a beginner student in Graphic Design and my cousin is an Engineer at a business I have applied for in the past. I didn't get hired at the time for lack of experience on CAD. Once again, I applied for the experience and skills I've gained through Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, and Premier Rush in class. I'm a current student so I downloaded AutoCAD, again, lol to do more hands-on learning and be ready for my interview at his job, which is this coming Monday! Thank you, sir, for boosting my confidence and helping me even set up a page and get familiar with the UI and basics of CAD, which I'm sure will be of great use for my interview. Can't wait to see the other videos and continue learning online with your help! God Bless. P.s I hope I get the entry level job as a drafter!

This is a great help for a beginner like me. I had never commented on video after I watch them but I just couldn't help this than to comment. This really helped me sir. Thank you

Thanks to this 3 vids I finished my midterm plates in less than 20 min😭❤ thank you very muchhhh!!!🎉

These videos are better than most school programs 👏🏻

Thanks for the video mate. Crystal clear :) Keep up the good work! I wanted a refresher for my CAD skills, and I found this ;) Great work

SourceCad has inspired me a great deal to create my own RU-vid Channel. I am an Architectural Technologist and I have been looking at ways to help people who asked me daily how to use the program. This way they can see my tips on RU-vid. Great channel mate; you inspired me. Keep up the great work!

thank you so much for this! incredibly helpful for someone who has literally zero knowledge of autocad. brilliant presentation!

Really superb sir... I'm an 1st year student of engineering. And with an enthusiasm I have seen this video nd I have understood Autocad till this video . I hope this helps mee alot sir . Thank you for the video

Great video for the beginner like myself. The one thing I struggled with is what I assume is a revision in the 2020 version. On the status bar there are no arrows beside the icons, you have to use the right mouse button to set things like the polar tracking angle.

My first time watching this and I am completely new to this but tye way you are explaining these things is mak8ng it sound simple! I will be watching the rest. Thanks for the videos!

Just watched all 3. Brilliant. Thank you

I've learned so much more from watching 5 minutes of this than one in person class.

Lately I was thinking of having my own dream house and for reference watched tons of videos on floor plans, 2d & 3D animation and was wondering how can I suit these to my conceptualization. The right way was to wait and approach a good Architect when I am ready to go for it, obviously I need to get my finances in place first. You just gave me a head start of 2 years in making my dream home a reality. Installing Autodesk 2021......

liked and followed! super helpful for anyone in school & not understanding their instructors, or in my case I've fallen behind & my instructor's recordings are super hard to follow and 4 hours long. amazing you could fit all this info in 17 minute videos, thank you!

7 years of not using cadd because i stopped working in archi firm. but now i need it again because life....lol. so this is super helpful refresher.

Currently taking an AutoCAD course, and it is crazy how three weeks' worth of material got nuked in a single video. Definitely watching the whole series Thank You!

I thought the Indian guy teaching hard concepts with ease meme was just that, a meme. Thank you very much!

Thank you very much for explaining the Autocad very well and easy.

You are legit a blessing this video was so helpful and concise. Thank you so much, Sir, hope you have an amazing day.
