Here is another option for your attachments. I use a pdf printer called "CutePdf"; it installs a a printer and you select it instead of your paper printer. This will allow you to create a pdf file of ANY document that you print. This would be a much better solution for viewers and it also makes the file size very small.

I posted several drawings here that were from AutoCad; the Pdf files are very nice because the drawing is maintained in a vector format, the lines and text are still crisp when zooming.

CutePdf is free; easy to find using Google.

BTDT.

I posted 2D shots of the drawings already. They are nice and all, but they don't come near what can be communicated in a full scale 3D sketchup file.

Still plugging along on the remodel. Auction season has started too. I can't help myself. I have to go to auctions. If I didn't make so much money off of auctions, I may be able to talk myself out of it. Even if I had time right now, I don't have the space. I need to clear out some old tillers and electrical panels from the last auction.

Old tillers?

Old tillers?

Pathological auction impulses.

I paid $50 for two tillers. Neither works. I may have to count the tillers in the "You lose some" category. All is well, though. I've already doubled my money on this most recent auction (even including the tillers) via a few ebay sales.
