Axonometric Drawings in Rhino

This video tutorial goes through the steps of setting up and exporting Axonometric drawings from a 3d model in Rhino. Please refer to the timestamps below for a detailed breakdown of the key steps within this video:
0:10 - Difference between Perspective, Parallel and Axonometric
1:40 - Create a copy of your 3d model
2:15 - Rotating the model by 45 degrees
2:40 - Shear the model by a shear angle of -45 degrees
3:40 - Rotate the model by 90 degrees in plan view
4:22 - Turning this model into a 2d drawing
5:05 - Add line weights to this 3d drawing - including a model outline
7:45 - Adding this on to a layout page and printing as a pdf

This was the clearest tutorial I've seen so far. Great work, I appreciate the details you put into it.

Thanks Jonathan, im glad you found it useful

Great video, thanks. Interesting that the axono cannot be a projection view. FormZ has a variety of projections but cannot perform the proper axonometric as you propose here. I never thought of shearing the model- great idea! The shear tool reminds me of what Peter Eisenman did with some actual models of his houses back in the 80's I think...

Thanks Peter, I believe its because a true Axonometric drawing is actually a 2d representation of a 3d model as so cannot be achieved within a projection view
