Needing help with drawings.

OK maby wrong site for this. Though i believe that u all honorable helpful people.
I want 2 build a shaker screen for a skid-steer or useful for many contraptions.
Here is a picture of what i am thinking.

Shot at 2007-07-22
Before the build i want to get a similar design down. Tried a few CAD drawing programs, are very intense learning curve. This is where i would like help.
Would like to get this done in a cad 2D & 3D. Then there will be no guess work & some design flaws can be overcome before build. And the 2D drawings be exported into a CNC plasma cutter.
If there is anyone here that can help with the CAD drawings, I would like to talk. Once the drawings have be completed, U could sell the drawings on the internet (ebay), post them for free?. So if u can do CAD drawings and willing to help out, there may be willing buyers for the drawings.
If not i would pay the bare minimum amount in cash to keep u happy.
Hopeful it will be a win win. Or a joy to show talents.
THANK YOU.

where are you stuck in drawing yourself?

I'm not good enough to be paid for, and don't have enough time

Kinda suck all over

What i done was, I tried to draw a simple bucket and found out how to get the floor and back and sides into a 3D drawing, then couldn't figure out how to cut the sides back on the angle, or anything else for that matter. I could do this on paper, though without many headaches not in CAD. I will get specs for the necessary design. Such as material profile and thickness. Bushes height & thickness. Hydraulic motor mount holes & size. and could draw it on paper ready for someone to put into CAD. I'm not looking for someone to do and have ready yesterday. More hoping for a helping hand, that could be done in spare time. So i could get a design ready for a CNC plasma cutter, And whoever helps hopefully make a few dollars form the sale of plans for yrs to come.

Cool. I seen in your picture album u are using autocad, I will download autocad2007. It may make the whole thing go a lot more smoothly. Ill get that over the next 2 days. Is there other programs or addons that u use, ill try to get them also.
Don't know the manufacture of the bucket in the picture, so thats the only shot i have of it, Ill search for some more (already tried no success).
Ill get cracking and do some isometric drawings with as many dimensions details i can think of. They may be a little rough probably better than nothing. Also get a list of all brackets, plate thicknesses, bearings & rubber mounts that i can get my hands on, so we know where to start.
some stuff doesn't need to be drawn into cad like the motor and hose clamps or tags for the quick disconnect. Though if u what to put the drawings on eBay, It would be best to have everything there. makes it more attractive for people.
Thanks for putting your hand up for this. I usually work very slow so there is no need to feel rushed on it.
Also if u have yahoo messenger Ill send u a PM with my contact details.
Cheers.
