Drawing suggestions

Hi i'm still looking for ways to expedite drawings
One solution is just to use Archcut and get the lines for the section cut
Then do your hidden line drawing of the entire object in Maya
The version of Maya might have to be a non-student version
In Maya you would set a clipping plane in one of the side views.
This would allow you to zoom in to the model, then as the clipping plane zooms in, it will cut out what ever is between the camera and the clipping plane and show only what is behind the clipping plane
Once the correct distance has been achieved, you can go to render settings and choose Vector render
This will allow you to then make a hidden line drawing as you would in Rhino, but might take less time for those of you who are struggling with massive files and then have to split, convert into surface, etc. to Make2D. 
If you are interested and can get a version of maya with VectorRender, then you just need to save and export as .obj

Meanwhile here is some other things
