Excel? There is something about that ....amusing? amazing? Very good work though, and looks like a generous amount of space - nice

I think the excel spreadsheet is a great case of using what you have. And going forward he use it to trial fit everything and link the cells to another sheet with inventory information for home owners insurancein the same doc. Sounds better than cad or visio to me. =)

sorry to hear that. We are really lucky with our current house - 5 level back-split, which effectively gives us two basements. I've claimed a bit for game-room, but it's still contentious.

Cannot agree more. It is amusing in a way - never thought of doing a floor-plan in excel. It's totally creative, inventive, using what you have at hand, and much better than learning a new tool for such a small job. And yes, the possibilities (linking, etc) are quite interesting. I'll usually jump into visio or sketchup, but this will make me think next time i want to draw something. Must be a big house to have such a massive basement!
