Christiaan Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Is it possible to create firring strips with the framing member tool? To avoid any terminology confusion: a firring strip is a tapered strip of timber fixed along the top of a joist to create fall to the decking above. Quote Link to comment
taoist Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 (edited) Christiaan, From what I can tell, Framing Member Tool only pitches the member like a rafter. It does not allow for tapered slopes. What we need is a Wedge Tool. Closest we have is Ramp Tool. You will need to draw a rectangle, chamfer tool (3rd option) and extrude. I did mine in Front (side)view and made strip 1-1/2" extrusion. Line 1 is top, line 2 is side. Works great! Edited July 16, 2012 by taoist Quote Link to comment
Dieter @ DWorks Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 You can also use a roof face for this. Just set the thickness very high. Quote Link to comment
