3d max
thanks AKMAC i use corel Draw to make my plans as much easier than autocad although i use autocad for some stuff. I have tried to use max but i guess I am too old to understand the making of meshes because as i read and try to figure it out I get all confused. what I am mainly wanting to do with it is to make all my parts on the plans into 3d object or i guess the easiest way would be to say i want to make them thick so I can have a Skeleton as though my plane was just framed up so I can go around it checking for framing problems. I just wished they had some courses at the college for that here. I dont have a problem really drawing the plans just wanting to get a 3D or maybe an isometric view of the framed plane.
