  1. If I'm not mistaken it started out as 3d CAD and after the name was changed to 3d home architect and I think it was sold by Broderbund products (this going back to early 2000). I think the last version of that was 18 or something like this.and after in late 2000 Chief Architect surfaced. With that said, if I need a quick a symbol I will make it in Chief, if I need more detailed symbol I will use sketchup, its faster, more options, better capability, etc frankly speaking it was designed for modeling. Even CA using 3d party software to make library models.
  2. Nice job Joe! Here is another glass partition I made it a while back, which can be put together with individual pieces without overlapping the posts. The whole partition is in pieces. Counter Partition.calibz
  3. Here is a symbol I made with some minor adjustments you can make it work I hope it helps Casing Simbol.calibz
  4. If you talking about there is no cut out for the dormers inside, you have to select the area and specify as an attic space. to get your dormer wall cutout
  5. Rob and Cheryl it's a pleasure, Enjoy!
  6. That will save me some time for sure...Thanks for that tip Jon!
  7. I don't think you can make that work... Unless someone else has the answer... If I want to get the glass to be see through in Ortho view, I use remove surface tool and take the glass out in windows or doors. You can do the same and just have the frame showing, most will get a general idea that glass is there.
  8. Made a custom towel rack today, nice for mounting on the platform or even Joes Famous Half Shower wall. Can be easily made by any local metal shop, contemporary style. If you can use it, you welcome to it. SS Towel Rack.calibz
  9. My pleasure CJ, glad I can be of help Enjoy!
  10. Sorry Guys One more minor adjustment... After I left I had that image in my head the way these lights were attached to the wall, and when I got back I checked and sure enough I realized I didn't have the extension bars which bring the main bar from the mounting box. I was also missing one with the 3 light as Rob requested originally. Now its all fixed and its a complete set.

  11. It's a pleasure Alan, glad to help out... As the name goes I like it, its some to think about lol Enjoy!
  12. I run 15 also, try to apply texture to faces and then try, also save it the earlier version the better, I save them all in SU7
  13. Rob, I'm sure you can find some tutorials on youtube... I been messing around with Sketchup since it came out on and off, and the last 10 or so years I been really messing around with it, doing lots of modeling for my jobs, for some local Architects and other contractors. Most of the plugins are free and they can save you lots of time doing many different things, most of the plugins have a video tutorial, so you mess with it and before you know you get a hang of it. When you get the general concept how Sketchup works, you can make any model. You just make individual pieces and put them together. It's pretty easy. They got a Free version, with some limitations, but you can make anything you want with it. I started with a Free version, when I got better, I bumped it up to Pro. Try it out, you will have a blast with it. Good luck
  14. Rob, anytime! I'm glad you could use it. No money needed, it was a pleasure doing it. Enjoy!
  15. Ahh I see John, Thanks for clearing that up. With that said, what can I say, the guy needed that light, I made it for him, what it came out to be is out of my control.
  16. Definitely more sluggish than 6
  17. You can also use Gable/Roof line... Run it close along the roof line where you want you gable.
  18. Rob, I made that light for you... maybe a some things a bit off, but it should be close enough. If you want me to change something let me know I have the model saved so it should be a problem, just had a long day today. Picture is attached if you can use it, enjoy it.

  19. Yes Mick, it seems that way... I was just trying to give someone here a link to a help file he was looking for and it was down for me also. Maybe they doing re-haul on it who knows.
