  1. A couple of you have mentioned on-line courses. I'm part of Jonathan Pickups group and have two of his manuals. I have gained much knowledge from him.

    Hmmmm ... I'm wondering if someone like him could have a more formal teaching environment like an in depth 6 month course or what ever ....

    I'll pop him a email and get his input.

    PS .... I have not talked to him about this and to my knowledge he is unaware of this thread. .... he will be once I email him!

  2. Tom, I do recall that there a couple schools teaching VW's however I don't recall which ones specifically. I'll bet someone at NNA can get you more info...

    Funny you should mention NNA.

    I called them yesterday figuring THEY of all people would be able to help. I talked to their sales dept and am still waiting for a list.

  3. I've been doing some research into institutions that teach/use VW Arch as their CAD program of choice. It seems that AutoCad is the standard, which I know it is, and VW is some sort of orphan in the drafting world.

    Do any of you know of institutions/schools that use VW's?

    Thanks,

    Tom

  4. Peter.

    You mentioned farting around with the brick hatch. I had actually done that at the beginning but kept thinking there

    HAS to be a roof hatch with a $1k+ program that is used for designing buildings!!!!!!!

  5. Thank you Gentlemen!

    I had the tolerences set at no fractions and upon zoomin in, the dims were at the centre & outside edge of the walls.

    Sooooo ...being anal ....I moved the wall to give me the dim I want.

    I try to draw with the builder in mind as I have built before.

    Thanks again.

    Tom

  6. Happy New Year to all!

    This is my first post and yes I have done a search :)

    I have done both auto dimension and manually dim'd the outside walls and the result is the same. The numbers are wrong!

    Help would sure be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Tom
