Fair enough, but how often does that come into play for the average

end up fitting together

This is probably not a fair answer from me but Swingman and I have often in
the past built kitchens together, He would build the face frames in his shop
and I would cut up all the plywood panels. A few years ago I took 27 pieces
of oak veneer plywood back to my shop to cut up. When he was done with the
face frames and i was done with the 100+ panels we would get together at his
shop and spend 3 or 4 days assembling all the components for a kitchen or
two. Typically a few weeks later we would install the cabinets.



Or to simply share with others so they don't have to reinvent
the wheel. If all of the hobbyists shared their drawings it
would be a huge timesaver. To a certain extent that's what the
SketchUp warehouse is all about, though I've not found any
"complete" drawings yet.

The nice thing about a partial drawing is you get to exercise you're
own creativity in completing it.

That can also be done on the computer, but you can be creative in several
different versions. That way you end up with your favorite version and so
to speak not be taking "pot luck" with what you end up with.
