Need Assistance Drawing Spring

[RobDraw]

I do care about aspect too it was just to show you that symbol has been standardized and pretty much universal so the intention was never to reinvent the wheel but to me a spring loaded check valve are always represented according to the standard and no time is spent on fancy stuff specially not for for symbol.

If that is an accurate representation of the standard symbol, I'm not buying. There are several CAD errors. I've got plenty of time for the fancy stuff. That's why they pay me so poorly. So, no matter what is decided for our standard, I'll be drawing it myself.

Perhaps a dictionary definition of "symbol" might help clarify thoughts -

 

symbol

A thing conventionally regarded as representing, typifying, or recalling something else by possessing analogous qualities or by association in fact or thought; esp. a material object representing an abstract concept or quality.

Back to your original idea. Perhaps it should look more like this?

 

 

Can you teach me step-by-step of how to draw spring like above pic?

Sorry, not at the present moment as I am on vacation.

@basty 

1. Turn on the grid and grid snaps.  Set osnap to node.
2. Set pdmode to 35 so you can see points.
3. draw an orderly array of points as shown below.
4. Draw spline using the Fit method and click on the points in the noted order.

@lrm Thank you very much.
