Dude thank you so much! you have no idea how much you helped me!

[@bryanmcdermott77]

I used this, too. Loved seeing it come to ‘life’ in 3D

[@andrewg5270]

can you use this to design a deck?

[@rlw3461]

Awesome John, That was a lot of help. How did your basement come out? I'm about to do mine also. Ive had contractors over but they think I'm made of money, so I have decided to do it myself.

[@OHFScratch]

Thanks. Still working on it!

[@darrennunes6157]

can you provide the file of your finished basement

[@christophermcstay8739]

John, how did you use this to create printable floor plan sheets? From what I can see on their website, you need the professional version to do that. Thanks

[@OHFScratch]

You can export an image (jpg, png, etc.) in this version.

The program allows you to print to your printer. For construction drawings print to .PDF and head to office Depot and they will print to architectural drawings sizes

Can't you chose the elevation to be the basement to start with and make it begin as a basement to start with? Rather than adjusting first floor exterior walls? Looking at getting this software to finish a basement myself.

[@OHFScratch]

Not sure. I'm not a power user. You can try that approach.

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

John Our Home from Scratch OK I'll let you know what I find out.

How do you add insulation between the exterior wall and the interior wall? Thanks

[@OHFScratch]

XPS foam against the foundation between the exterior wall and the framing OR batt insulation between the framing members.
