Technical Illustrations Workspace in Adobe Illustrator

Is there any effective way to utilize the workspace in Adobe Illustrator, such that we need the only necessary tools to create illustrations.
I need to create line-art illustrations as attached.

I am new to Adobe Illustrator, since I used Tech-Illustrator, IsoDRAW, CATIA and 3Dvia in my previous company.

Regards,

Re: Technical Illustrations Workspace in Adobe Illustrator

This is my workspace - lots of panels, mostly plug-ins by Astute Graphics.
  • Protractor allows me to quickly set constrain angles, handy for isometric/axonometric drawing.
  • PathScribe and InkScribe are advanced path creation/manipulation tool sets.
  • Dynamic Shapes creates precise, flexible, adjustable primitive shapes.
  • Dynamic Corners rounds/miters sharp corners
  • Stylism allows dynamic control of effects like transform, free transform, offset, feather, etc.
  • Appearance palette, a must for applying thick/thin stroke styles to groups, stacking effects, etc.
  • Stroke palette, fully expanded
