This allows you to see three faces or sides of the object. When you view an oblique projection, the front plane is parallel to your line of sight. As a result, it will appear in true size and shape. The other two planes, such as the top and sides, are at an angle to your line of sight.  \nCircular Objects  \nOblique drawing is useful when one face of the object needs to be shown flat. The oblique projection provides an  \nFIGURE 1. An oblique projection allows you to see three sides of an object at one time, as seen in this projection.  \neasy method for drawing circular objects parallel to the plane of projection. Angles and circles parallel to the front projection plane are in true size and shape. This makes it easy for you to draw them. It is common to pick the side view, with the most circles or angles, as the front view. It is more difficult to draw circles on the top or side views because they are at an angle. Inan oblique projection, the depth of the object in the angled view can be distorted. So you must compensate for this if you want to represent the object in a realistic manner.  \nManual Drafting  \nOblique projection is primarily used in manual drafting. Typically, there is no need to create oblique drawings using computer-aided design and drafting because once you create a 3D model, the computer can automatically generate isometric or oblique drawings.  \nTHREE TYPES OF OBLIQUE DRAWINGS  \nThere are three types of oblique drawings: cavalier, cabinet, and general oblique.  \n| \u003Cbr>~~ ~~ FURTHER EXPLORATION… |\n| --- |\n| \u003Cbr>ONLINE CONNECTION: How to Create Oblique Projections\u003Cbr>Learning how to create oblique projections is a required skill for all designers and drafters.
