New Posts Bouvier, Don's Avatar (Old) Irregular exterior wall
We have an exterior wall on the second floor which is irregular in shape. 8ft high on one end, with a 7.5/12 pitch roof coming down the other side so that the side is 0ft. Kind of like a box with a right angle triangle next to it. How do I create it?

New Posts opchiasm's Avatar (Old) Flooring
After making some changes to a plan that I thought had nothing to do with the floors, I now have no floor between the first floor and the basement and the house is sitting on hardwood flooring, i.e., not grass. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
