I’m not a sessions user @troy-degroot so I haven’t tried this, but would it work if you hit the “delete” key while the session is selected?

Registered and looking forward to the debut @troy-degroot !
Have you invited Shirin to join the Brainery????

I really appreciate you making the time to make these videos @Vince !
I think I may have missed something in the 3rd one though – how did you establish the 100 mm offset in the double line for the path?

That’s a good question @robgib0 that I haven’t heard discussed before. Have you tried drawing a series of lines of various weights and then using a measurement tool to see how they scale?
@Vince has been doing something similar using a “double” line style to create offsets. I’d suggest checking his video on how he is using this tool.
Keep us posted on what you find.

Looking forward to Shirin Arnold’s presentation @troy-degroot and to learning who you have lined up for the future!

I remember working on “geometric constructions” or something like that in High School drafting class @Vince . We had to draw all of the surfaces on paper, cut them out and assemble them into a 3D shape. What started out with a simple cubes and cylinders progressed to a cylinder cut at an angle. I think I might still be able to recreate it if I thought about it enough… So much easier to do with modern software! 😎

That’s one of the things that I enjoy about hanging out here in the UChapter2 “room”. I am surrounded by like minded individuals who push me to take my Revu game to the next level every day.
Thank you @troy-degroot for making the “room” available for us and thank you all for the lessons and challenges! 😎

Amazing stuff @Doug McLean ! I’m thinking that once you win the project we will need to arrange a visit to your fabrication facility for the “Unofficial UChapter2 Advisory Board” to see how it all comes together… 😎

I’m going to go back to measuring curb and sewer pipe for now. My head hurts just starting to think about how to go about this @Doug McLean !😲
I’d be curious at some point to learn how you handle was allowances on projects like this. I know in the past you have mentioned that the available sheet good size tends to drive the waste allowance. On a feature like this I could see the quantity of waste being higher than the quantity of useable material!

And after watching that video I now need to write a script to add my coversheet with a single click!
Thank you for sharing this @ChrisRiley !

I like the “Layers” page idea @ChrisRiley !
I do something similar with what I call my “Takeoff Coversheet”, though I hadn’t thought of putting my standard layers on it… This coversheet has most of my “standard” items that we include on every estimate (Mobilization, Supervision, Layout, etc) along with standard testing items. I insert the page (saved as a template) into my takeoff file. That way when I import my takeoff to create my bid items I have all of those standard items in the file without having to select them every time.

Thank you for the clarification @Vince . I’ll have to play with this one a bit…
