Recommended for you

Draw them up in your favorite CAD package and then INSERT OBJECT into the WORD document.

It some times help to insert a text block and the insert the object into the textblock in word ( you have an easier time moving it to where you want it.)

You could also export from you cCAD software a BMP, GIF ofr TIFF file of your object and then insert that.
