thanks. I do structural design on navy ships as a day job and then residential plans on nights and weekends.

mtl, no need for the search box. what i ended up doing is using a half wall, took off the cap and did a polyline countertop. your pony wall gave me the idea. gave it a little offset on the end for a better look. thanks

it's not a pony wall but you have a really good idea i never thought of trying. thanks man

wall to counter shown. i looked in the cabinet properties and see mouldings but it places it on the actual countertop (weird). how can i continue the baseboard on the backside bottom of the cabinets? don't be hatin on my electrical. i have to redo the whole area. haha

yep, thats it. thanks. i tried to export in plan view.

i forgot how to share a model in 3d viewer. its been a awhile. help?

Yeah, i see where to extend countertops outward but not up. Never made them before.

You guys wanna throw out your ways of creating raised counters? Is there a vid on this? Thanks!

yep, that worked. thanks, i was hoping it would rebuild it for me to make sure it was exact. but i got it.

so the client changed the foundation on me after i completed the plans. not a big deal. went from a 4" mono slab to a raised 16" stemwall. now i am having problems running the new foundation. it creates the home but not the back covered porch or carport. all floor need to be 16" above grade. (2 blocks). any suggestions of what i'm doing wrong? Carl_Kristen_Wade3.plan

perfect, thanks alaskan.

any clue why my wall is missing? i have an 18" overhang that should have created it. Carl_Kristen_Wade3.plan

chop ALWAYS got the answers. thanks man, that was it!

so i set up my framing defaults to 7.5" ridge and 5.5" rafters. it keeps framing to a 11.25" ridge and 9.25" rafters? why does it keep bypassing what i tell it too?

thanks guys, i always try to do things the hard way.

can we put a double oven in cabinet? if so, how do we add it? keeps saying appliance already attached to this cabinet.

right on chopsaw! thanks

guys, how do you get rid of the opening in terrain with all wood foundations?? thanks this was asked a while back but i cant find the thread.

that was it.......rotating and then new symbol, thanks

very tricky. i tried to rotate in the symbol settings 90 degrees but it won't budge. where is that setting?

cool guys, i was wondering if there would be some manuel work to do. thanks

so i got my beam size like i wanted (2) 2x8's. but where can we change the posts to rectangular dims? i need 4x6 posts

I have been pricing the laser measures. Dont you have to stick a target to the wall your shooting to (exterior walls).

This is very true. I did an addition to a vetrinary business. Once the owner moves the business into the addition he wants me to come back and tear down and layout new walls in the existing building. What's cool is he is working out of a model home and had the floorplan so i added the existing interior walls already in the plans i delivered to him. All I have to do is a save as to a new file and reconfigure walls. No clue how to even charge for that its so easy lol.

I, for one, did a cartwheel when i finally found out about story pole dims. When i first got chief a year ago, i thought those were manually drawn in from the examples i saw on the chief homepage lol.
