Ebbman Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 I am wanting to draw dovetailed logs. Does anyone have any experience with this? I am using X6 and am a relatively new user. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Think I saw log siding in the Library at one point but no idea on the dovetailed part. M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 I think Joe C. does a lot of log homes, I'm sure I've seen some of his stuff before. Maybe he can chime in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Carrick Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Normally, I use "Coped Logs" but in Chief the process is similar. 1. I use a Wall Type that's the Wall Thickness - basically an almost Invisible material. 2. Insert all Doors and Windows into these walls. 3. Place Symbols of the Logs centered on the walls (half height Log one directionwith a full height Log on top of it) 4. Place a Full Height Log in the other direction. 5. Replicate the Logs up the Walls just as you would when actually building the structure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
