A few fundamental commands form the backbone of every AutoCAD project.

• The LINE command draws straight segments between two points and is the most-used tool in 2D drafting.
• CIRCLE draws precise circles that you can trim, offset, or pattern into more complex geometry.
• The TRIM command removes unwanted portions of lines or arcs where they intersect other objects.
• OFFSET creates evenly spaced copies of existing objects, saving time on repetitive layouts.
• The DIMENSION command places dimension labels that update automatically when you modify the underlying objects.

Once you feel comfortable with these tools, you can move on to layers, blocks, and hatching.
