Can you point to an example of what you expect to get?

These actually can be achieved rather easily.

 

You need to keep in mind the angles for drawing them: 150° 30° 90°

you can set this up for your smart guides

 

Or you can draw the top view and then transform the artwork using several plugins e.g. https://exchange.adobe.com/creativecloud.details.16059.nimbling-ssr30.html

or of course you can create actions to get the transformations you need. e.g. https://design.tutsplus.com/tutorials/how-to-create-advanced-isometric-illustrations-using-the-ssr-method--vector-1058

 

Then you can apply gradients across the strokes using the gradient panel. and have the strokes end in a round cap.

I've moved this from the poorly named Community Help forum (which is the forum for issues using the forums) to the Illustrator forum so that proper help can be offered.
