In this video, I tackle a more complex object with inclined surfaces to demonstrate how to effectively choose a primary view and project dimensions across multiple planes. I start by sketching the U-shaped face as my primary view to minimize initial hidden lines, then project these features horizontally to construct the side view where the inclined surface is clearly defined. Using a miter line, I transfer those dimensions upward to complete the top view, making sure to include necessary hidden lines for internal features. I also share a quick lesson on the importance of double-checking your work by matching surfaces between views to ensure everything is technically accurate and correctly aligned
