In this tutorial, we will look more closely at SolveSpace's two-dimensional drawing tools. SolveSpace is a 3d CAD program; but if we want, then we can still draw, dimension, and export a 2d sketch, without using any of the 3d features. These tools are also useful in 3d parts, for example while drawing a plane sketch to... | <urn:uuid:d1b4e587-692a-4c40-808e-46c5a5477e36> | CC-MAIN-2016-26 | http://solvespace.com/2d.pl | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-26/segments/1466783397749.89/warc/CC-MAIN-20160624154957-00190-ip-10-164-35-72.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.928091 | 5,550 | 3.453125 | 3 |

Washing clothes by hand is a very tedious task. For instance, many sea voyagers would place their dirty clothes in strong cloth bags, tie them to the ship, and toss them overboard. They would let the ship drag the bags for hours, thus washing their soiled clothes with the help of the force of water.
