Re: Use SketchUp to create a 3D framing model

I am hoping someone can straighten me out here. I am following along with this because I want to build a shed and I want to learn Sketchup. I get to the part where I drage the wall plates over to the sub floor and the wall plates are always too large or somehow I am stretching the component while I drag it. I have looked at this a bunch of times but can't see where I am going wrong. Anyone help me out here?

Re: BUILDING SKILLS: Wall Framing Layout

Can you explain to me the proper way to make a right angle join between two framed walls? I can make this work but would like to know the proper way to do it.

Cheers,

Dave
