build from skratch

Post by richcamlin »

Is it possible to build from scratch. I'm trying to design a simple HC Ramp for a neighbor. I would like to use/create lumber (eg. 2x8x12) and assemble it myself. Is that possible w/this sw?

thanks

Rich,

This program isn't meant to make technical drawings, but yes, you could draw a ramp.
- Use an elongated triangle for the main body of the ramp.
- Use elongated boxes for your vertical wooden beams.
- For diagonal parts, export your wooden beams, then re-import them and give them the desired rotation.
