So here’s the next installment in the Family Creation series. This is the continuation of our talk about planning out the families and getting everything ready before you go into the family editor.

Business Call
So I figured I should actually post what is going on and why you haven’t seen a post. It seems that every time I get back to going in a good pattern for posting something stupid happens.

The Whipping Boy: Starring Revit
Sad but true that a bunch of professionals can justify standing around a desk for hours blaming a piece of software they barely understand for all their project issues.

No. Was it meant to be satirical. Not so much. Sarcastic, definitely. Humorous, for sure. The problem with digital media of […]

Stop putting info in your BIM model!!!
Someone recently told me I need to find the balance between modeling and drafting. I asked them why and their response was “I’M AN AUTOCAD USER DON’T QUESTION ME!”.. no seriously, I have no clue what their response was because I stopped listening once I realized that the reason they didn’t want to model things […]
