joey_martin Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Give me your tips & tricks. I have been using Chief for what feels like a century now but still cringe when I get one of these from my builders or homeowners.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robdyck Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I've used Chief's Box / Bay window tools and they work ok (sometimes) but I find them to be less flexible and more work to adjust the component settings than building a separate room where I can adjust the ceiling / floor finishes and heights manually. But I'm not sure I know anything about Chief that you don't. What do you use, and what aspect bothers you the most? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That box/bay windows date back to the begging of residential construction in America and yet, we have to jump through hoops to complete this task in a professional residential design software package.

MoeGia Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 This is one of my favorite architectural details. I use them a lot on my houses. Love it at the kitchen sink! I too wish the box bay tool worked better. If it did, I might have one on every house! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stairs go back a long way too...and the stair tool is lacking also. I hope I live long enough to see some improvement in the stair tool... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
