My sister, an architect in South America has benefited from learning Autocad through you. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge to help others!
Hi and Thanks for the comment, I'm really pleased that many people are benefiting from this series. Next video is on the works and will be released soon. My best regards
Great that you found the solution. I'm assuming that it involves also the one you asked in tutorial #11. If not please post back to let you know. My best regards
I'm really glad to hear it, and I'm really pleased to help your sister and others as well, thanks for sharing that and make sure to let us know any suggestion. Next videos are on the works. My best regards
Great catch Jacob and thanks; you are absolutely right. That dimension is ok; it is supposed to indicate the width of the window, which is 6" (without the inner window sill), the problem is that is misplaced. The one that is wrong is the 3" for the sill, which is supposed to be 4". Also the one that indicates 1" should be 2". Most likely what happened is that I used the wrong drawing for the video without noticing. I'll make sure to indicate it in the video. Thanks again for the help and regards
Hello, Thanks a lot for your comment. Both extension lines are pointing at the upper part so it should add up to 8'. The reason for the bottom dimensions is to indicate the measurements of the 3 sections of the window. Most likely you don't see it right due to the resolution. Try looking at the highest resolution since it was recorded in HD and let me know if you still can't see it. On the other hand it has a real typo in a dimension was carried over from the others with the smallest window.
Great video tutorials! Learned a tremendous amount so far. I think there may be a typo in your dimensions when you show the dimensions for all 4 windows at once: the smallest window in the lower left, the 6" dimension looks (visually, please correct me if I'm wrong) like it should be 4". Looks like the 6" might be carried over from the other windows dimensions. Thanks again! Great videos.
Yes Sir, in Cad you'll have plenty predetermined blocks to work with. That's going to be explained in the next video, but is important to know how to do it because in most cases you'll need to do your own library of blocks to reuse in the drawings. Hope this helps and best regards
I use it, although not too often. It is not my specialty, so I don't see myself doing it. But one thing is important. Before going into MEP you need to learn the basics of CAD, otherwise you won't be able to use it properly. Best regards
First of all thank you. Im have a big project and no idea about CAD so ur tutarial is a great help. I could only wish it was more than 13 ep. as i need to learn quick . Anyways keep up the good work. Now, about the video : the dimesions for the 2nd window cant be right 8' long the top edge and then the bottom one is 2'+4'+2' =8' again ? Impossible considering we take off 1/2" each side , unless i dont see that right. Regrads
Hi :) You CAD Tutorials are very much usefull for me to learn trough - by the Way can u share or give link were i can get some drawings with dimensions for practice Regards
i'm following this drawing plan to a t, it is a great help and i love this program , one thing i would like is a to see is how you drew the windows from the start , if possible. thanks in advance
Hello. With the dimensions for the windows is simple to draw them. The tricky part is turn them into blocks which is the purpose of the video. I skipped that part due to the time and assuming it should be simple to do at this point. I'll try to go back to do it once the series is done. Hope this helps
nicolas jr nikcool You have two options, one is specifying it at the moment of inserting the block. The other option is scaling it down after the insertion. Another tip is that if the block is too large you can always modify it to the appropriate size, for this you can refer to video 12 of this series that I'm putting here: ua-cam.com/video/1qI-hWk9gUUH/v-deo.htmlope this helps and all the best.

When the next tutorial will be released.I have learnt a lot from this videos.
I'm really glad you like it and that benefited you.
My best regards.
This is so useful, thank you for all the time you put into this. It's really helped me catch up because last time I used CAD was 4yrs ago.
It is my pleasure, again feel free to ask anything or share your feedback. It'll be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot for posting.

Ok i see it know. Thanks a lot.
If you don't mind me asking .. is the exact placing of the windows critical for the upcoming videos .. or is it something I can workout later ..??
You can do it later on. It is not a critical part.

how do you resolve insertion scale. when block object is too large from your drawing
nicolas jr nikcool You have two options, one is specifying it at the moment of inserting the block. The other option is scaling it down after the insertion.

Can i get the dimensions of the windows so I can complete this project? Thank you!
Thanks for asking.
You have them all in the video. Just pause it and make a screen shot when the clip shows or use it as a reference.
Regards
sir, do you have a video in base of electrical Tutorial, thank you sir.
Not specifically for electrical but I think some of these will help you out.

think y
thanks a lot
