I use Autocad at work. I could provide you with some usage I now have.
1. I use just standart views from the VIEW pannel. To create 2D drawing - you need to use only 1 TOP view. To start with creating 3D you need to almost forget about plan views and to use mostly Isometric ones.
Do you have any experience in creating 3D models? If you do not, so try to understand that drawing that you see at your display has 3 dimensions. Draw several lines in X, Y, Z and try to figure that they go let say "inside" your display.
If you have some 2D drawings use ISOMETRIC views to preview them. Lines that you have drawn will help you to understand ISOMTRIC views logics.
You will not belive me, but this is the most difficult step out of 3 steps, that you need to undertand to make quite good models - I assure you.
