Mark, can you explain the stretch planes and how you make the pivot point on door.

Thanks Rene....too good to be true

I have downloaded a few symbols in 3dsmax(from3dsky.org), i wanted to create a symbol in chief. I downloaded 3dsmax trial software. Seems like when i convert out of there all i get is one material. What is the best way to import these type of files into chief?

here is the plan, it was for a deck addition to the rear. Btw, i could not get ca to model that 1 row of border planks? Deck addition.zip
