Thanks everyone! I appreciate the help. I am looking forward to my long conference call at work tomorrow to work on it. One question I have is dealing with the axis. I can create the layers but whats the best way to make sure that everything is starting from the same "plane" i guess would be the word. Since its in 3d and all. This is a great app. The more I play around with it the more I love it. The tutorials are great too. I wouldnt say this would be the best app to design the control panel (visio is great for that), but if you are doing a cab from scratch and have some ideas and want to see the pieces fit, this works. (Or you can do like I did and get 4 dollar insulation panels from home depot that cut with a knife and put the pieces together by pushing nails in. Its great to see of things fit and is another great way to see any issues) |

Well... Here is my progress so far. Takes a little to get used to and to get the layers going. Once you master the moving and resizing, you are good to go. Now I get to figure up the measurments for the tv and where to place it and the braces. |
