Thank you. It did get done sorta quickly, 1week. It helps speed things
along when you have explicit drawings to work with. Thank you Shetchup.
That said I think it took 3 weeks to hone the concept.


I'm in a different camp. When building stuff for myself, even though I
might have created explicit plans, I continually find myself making
small and large modifications along the way. Sometimes it leads to
disaster, but it mostly turns out better than I'd hoped.

Since I live in an apartment, I usually draw and plan in the winter
and build in the other seasons. Drawing season is rapidly approaching.
Ashamed to say that I've yet to start experimenting with Sketchup. I
keep finding myself going back to a several years old copy of Adobe
Fireworks ~ mostly I guess because I know it. It's certainly not on
par with Sketchup, but it's familiar and easy for me to use. But then,
I'm not building at the frenzied rate you appear to be doing.
