You can fake the 3D, but it is still just a 2D drawing.
The third and biggest drawback is that it only does drawings in 2D. So, if you want to dimension a drawing, you have to individually draw arrows, layout the text between the arrows, rotate everything, and hope that it doesn’t need to be resized (because it doesn’t happen automatically). Second, it is made to produce top-quality graphics, which means there are a lot of options but no templates, especially for anything related to woodworking. First of all, it is difficult to learn, so I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone except those that do graphics for a living. I used the templates most often on curved pieces, and Illustrator is great at drawing curves with precise control.įor all of its positives, Illustrator has its drawbacks. The beauty of Illustrator was it’s ability to draw anything I dreamed up and to control the printing, which came in handy on full-size templates. After that I had to scale down my drawings, but that wasn’t very often. The artboard would allow me to draw up to 200″ at full-scale. I already knew how to use it from my previous life as an art director, so I made it work for woodworking.
It is used by designers throughout the world to do every kind of drawing, and it has more than enough capabilities to do nice drawings for woodworking.
When I started doing drawings for woodworking I used Adobe Illustrator.
