Hey Henry, People on this site will show how to draw this detail......but you might have more interaction over at www.diychatroom.com

Roof?

Just thought I'd try since the release version is only months away. It closes on launch. Now you know.....

My 2 cents. Keep the midspan beam but use continuous I-joists instead of lapped lumber. and your plan has nothing in it.

Looking for help with mixed roof layout on plan
para-CAD replied to DLHeck's topic in Seeking Services
Your best COA is to post your plan so people can understand what you say you need. -
Did you have that issue before rounding to ½"? I keep mine at 1/16th and force objects to move to the exact dimension I want. So far, the CAD obeys me.

calibz Multiple Meter Elec.calibz Let's hope I did this right

Here's the OBJ file6 meters.obj

Now if I could just share the plan with the original post member without sharing all the internals, like details from you and Dan embedded, then that member would be set. Yes........it's a nice slow day and I was fishing for something to help out with.

WOW!!! This rendering thing might just become fun for me. THANK YOU, Brother man. In Chief X17 above
-
Nice.......I will change the meters to clear glass.
-
There are dials on the meters...... It would be nice to see it the same in chief as in sketchup I don't do things in render to this level, but the OP probably wants more realism than the OBJ output. This is why I don't import 3D. I can just import a static screen shot from SU and it works for me

Here's the sketchup file https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/84btt6xcfuf0m764sum5d/Multiple-electrical-meters.skp?rlkey=uxa3j43aa3xfm9l4a1fyvhk84&dl=0

Yep....sketchup can do this, but exporting it to the correct format would be nice. I tried OBJ and lost all the resolution. SKETCHUP ABOVE CHIEF IMPORTED OBJ FILE Options to export from Sketchup

Left click and release on the first roof plane that you choose. Make sure you're near the edge of the roof plane that you want to connect with another roof plane when you click. It will make a red square or grip and you'll know that it's the chosen edge. Press and release the number two on your keyboard. Move your mouse to the next roof plane and click on it closer to the edge that you want to join with the initial roof plane. If you're building a shed roof, just drag the upper edge like a poly line until it bumps into the wall at the top of the roof plane. As soon as you click on the second roof plane, the software should automatically connect the two roof planes. If it does not then there are other things to look into. This is coming from memory and dictated through a microphone so there may be some confusion in there since I may miss something in proofreading.

MBP M1max I print to PDF at 100% scale. No issues. My layout is set at ARCH D (36x24) Everything is scaled already in layout. I have to remind print shops to print at 100% because sometimes their machines will print at 95%. I had a permit office guy call me out as if my plans were not drawn to scale........client had them reprinted correctly........no apologies. Now everyone is PDF only. I'll make a video if that helps

I just tried ChatGPT to render some framing.............it missed on the bottom cords of the trusses https://chatgpt.com/s/m_68744475b4a08191b51c5b7b593c092f

Sure....I was thinking a half bathroom, nice elongated toilet, pedestal sink, and 12' tall walls (12'-1 ⅛"). I need a room like that almost every day so I feel your urgency. Of course it'd be tree-fiddy for the PDF

Why can't we edit the labels for the default client information yet?
