How to generate drawings like the published field drawings?

[Creator Mat]

To help make drawings like the ones FIRST gives out you would probably have to model the field in inventor and make .idw's with all the parts.

this should probably go in the CAD section of the forum

also I don't have any idea where to find the field in CAD but to help CAD become a bigger part of your team, you might want to consider modeling up parts of systems in inventor before you make it. Inventor has a great part analysis program that can help immensely with making sure a part is strong enough to do its job. Even if it is just one thing. also if you model everything in inventor you can have your entire robot in your pocket, that weighs like 2 grams (in a flash drive) which is always helpful.
