Re: How do you know when to CAD vs draw up on paper quickly

Team 217 does exactly what Arthur explains happens on 228. We do everything in CAD and simultaneuosly do prototypes for critical items. If the prototypes find a particular geometry that work, then we will immediately CAD it in SolidWorks to get the manufacturing dimensions. See the attached pdf for an example of one of our assembly drawings.
