  1. trying to figure out if this wall oven block from the library can be exploded and modified. i need to throw in a microwave, move the oven down and keep the top cabinets. thanks guys
  2. Im learning when to say no and not take on these type projects. This may be one of them. Lol
  3. Ive done several pole barns too. Lol im ready for a normal house on slab design again.
  4. My newest client is wanting plans for a metal building home. Im not sure what the craze is about because i got another possible client wanting a two story metal building home. Im a little hesitant on how interior wood stud walls will tie into a building like this but to begin, what exterior wall type would you guys start with concerning the attachment. (Example shown) This job will be interesting. They hired a contractor who will provide their own plans JUST for the exterior four walls and the slab. I will come in and layout all the interior work. Im thinking theirs will consist of metal studs and such.
  5. i open up my layout file today and all the views are now black and white. even when i send new views in color from plan file to layout they are black and white. i have never messed with any settings like that. suggestions? thanks friends
  6. that makes you draw everything manually correct? here is what i was trying to do since i already built the framing. elevations showing this. (perspective framing overview shown in attachment) i need elevations to dimension.
  7. guys, i forgot how to cut a wall elevation that will show only the framing. if i manipulate layers in the section view layer set i will still need the defaulted layers showing windows and sheetrock in other views. hmmmmm

  19. I have a client who is wanting to build a post and beam style home. Can anyone suggest a starting point on designing this in chief? I'm thinking the wall commands will be quite different. I do not know the specifics yet on the wall construction.
  20. Thanks again guys...i just checked and the prick still has my plan posted on his site and wont take it down. I can only hope he gets ripped off and see how it feels.
