Steve,
It appears the original files may not have been created in Autocad,
which might be why you were having trouble plotting them out. I'll send
you the .pdf prints by private email.

I am sure that it is something I am doing wrong, since I got the
Trueview product from Autodesk.
The file is here:
http://www.edsonmarine.com/support/cad/dwg/Mcd_776_4_Adjustable_Crossed_Wire_Idler.dwg
I can see it in both the model and layout tabs, as downloaded, but it
won't print for me.
Thanks,

Steve,
Not sure of just what .dwg you're referring to, but I was able to
create a .pdf file by downloading one of the Autocad drawings on
the Edison website: "Assembly 6" Sheave", file name "Mcd-620-6".
If you tell me which file you need, I should be able to send you a
.pdf file of it.

To any lister with AutoCAD experience:
The plate holding the cable idler sheaves that bolts to the
bottom of the Edson steering pedestal on my recent C&C36 purchase
has almost completely disintegrated. I downloaded a .dwg drawing
of the assembly from the Edson web page and installed a version
of Autodesk Trueview (2014) that is compatible with XP, but I
cannot get it to print (plot) anything other than
an empty rectangle. I have been poking at it quite a bit and got
exactly nowhere. I have no experience with AutoCAD, and find the
user interface tools less than intuitive. About like my first
experience with vi in Unix, only less productive. Any fiddling
with layer colours, and the layout tab disappears completely. Is
there a simple way to print from either the model or the layout
tabs in the file as downloaded? All I have been able to get in
the print preview is a line rectangle the outlines the page, and
sure enough, that is all that prints. The help files have not
been helpful in printing, but at least I can pan, zoom, and take
measurements between points.
Edson lists a price for the entire assembly, but the sheaves
appear to be ok, and the Edson price (US$ 360) is pretty high for
what I think that I actually need. I would rather just make a
mounting plate if I can't purchase one for a reasonable price.

Dennis,
Interesting idea. The file is the problem, however.
