Seems unlikely (I've yet to find CAD that work as well as pencil and
paper, or that works _like_ pencil and paper, which I was trained to do
in high school, but even I find the idea of a web site for it dubious),
but any half-decent used book store should have several textbooks on the
subject, as it used to be commonly taught in schools and colleges.
Apparently still is in a few places.
Not to say I have not used various CAD programs over the years, I simply
have not found one I actually like - and I think part of that is that I
was trained to to the job on paper, so I want CAD tools that work the
way paper tools work - ie, set the compass, pick the center point, draw
a circle, not pick the center point, drag to get a circle, have to go
back and edit the object to get the circle the right size....
