Get better at assemblies and learn how to make machine drawings. This will help me achieve my goal to become proficient in CAD.

In the last week of the month reflect on your progress.
I believe I achieved my goal because I managed to make an assembly from some parts that I added. I also managed to make two problems completely on my own.
I learned how the "mate" and "flush" commands worked, which had confused me all summer. I also learned how to actually make and read drawings, which was great because I'm now able to make any part based on its drawing and vice-versa. My main resources were my teammates who answered all my questions and taught me core concepts.
I think my work this month helped me achieve my second main goal: to get more proficient in CAD. I made great improvements in my skills and I think I'm one step closer to achieving my goal.
