trust me, there’s a lot more missing… it gets a bit arduous with islands, especially when the mounting would be larger then the land mass.

DREW IT BY EYE?

WTF. Just import an image into cad and then trace it. LOL. You can actually draw stuff to a pretty accurate scale with a good picture and one dimension to set the scale… And something like that that doesn’t need precission, just joom in, use the polyline command, turn off Otrack and Osnap and just click your way around the world.

you can either insert\>raster image

or just PASTE it in. Don’t worry about setting up any scale until after the CAD is completely done…

Sometimes the linework goes behind the image and you cant see it, if that happens, move it XXXXX up, then back down the same amount.

first thing i did when i saw you replied in this thread was roll my eyes and think “oh great…what detailed input will corey provide towards interior decorating, coming from the otherside of the fence?”

you fell short of my expectations.
