After all the 3D work has been done, we can start drawing. For simple parts a drawing is still the easiest way to get something manufactured.
First we select the item we want to design and indicate the direction from which comes the first view (below you see the front view). The computer now calculates what must be printed be on paper.

For making this drawing, including resizing, I needed approximately 10 minutes.
