Thanks Mike and pbacot. This will be a bare bones model. It's made for others to easily modify as they need. It is now complete and available for download in the main gallery page.

Ta mate, I was measuring my new gaff today and it is less than half the size of this place but with my old cat not being on top form, there is less floor space for him to hide his "Movements"

Funny thing. I just watched and old movie last night, The Wild Geese II, and there was one interior scene where the footboard molding was very tall. My "guestimate" was at least 12" high, which is something you no longer see anywhere except in much older buildings, which is where this scene took place. So this picture may actually be an accurate scale of the molding, but without anything else nearby the model to visually scale with, it's hard to tell. But I thought I would just mention the footboard thing. I was quite surprised and immediately thought of this thread.

@Bryan K: Thanks for the tips! I've been really busy, so no time to check out the site or complete this resort, so I understand.

Commonly known as Bumper Cars, the dodge’ems have been entertaining children and adults alike since the 1920’s and have only got better over the years. Enjoy the ride, the music and your friends while you dodge’em! [image: FHHW_WIP-Bumpers-Day.jpg] [image: 1OXF_WIP-Bumpers-Night.png]

There is only so much round in the house, I stuck with the 24 segments natively used in Sketchup. The paio doors will not work so will be changed to standard items. Few other problems and nothing that cannot be solved. Just wondered if you meant the structure. There are external pillars around the ground floor, four of them. Each floor level would have a steel skeleton with potentiall concrete block floors but the walls would be composite panels bolting together. The upper floor overhangs the ground floor by about 5 feet.

Thanks ken, but that could be a while.

I added ssl (https) to the site and it broke the pretty links so I had to switch back to the ugly style url's I've changed the original post to this: https://www.dma-ni.com/dma_projects/dma_view_proj/?permalink=ardee-road-dundalk Also that is one very broken 404 page .... looks like I need to do a little work on the site this weekend

@mike amos said: Good idea there, a counter to the mobile phone or nagging device as I like to think of them. Communication only when the individual wants to do so sounds like nirvana to me. Exactly. It can be used as a regular stand alone phone booth or connected to your laptop or cell/mobile phone.

Not sure it will work logistically, and tucking the dining room back within an enclosed room is counter to the Usonian house concept. Hey Daniel, so glad to get a note from you, the reason for the multi purpose room comes from the way my sister( the client ) uses her spare room now, it is primarily intended as a guest room but would be used as a dinning room only during the Christmas holidays. Well, that's a new one. I once designed a home for client that had a formal dining room, but no living room, but did have an alcove for the Christmas tree (complete with fireplace - ya gotta hang those stocking some place). Did your sister like the design? LOL...a bottom less pit, what a great idea!! My sister liked it very much but initially had a problem with the design because of the stair, she was looking at the floor plan with her I phone and did not see the elevator.

Looking good!

Thanks guys, I need to alter bump for the walls and tidy a few things up. The problem with small properties is getting a decent angle but that is just adjusting the frame.

Looking good Bryan, very intriguing.

No. Once you change a curve to a solid all parametric input is gone. Fredo has some tools that can upsample though. In this instance it's as fast to just redo it. The difference between biased and unbiased is that biased uses a lot of guesswork to resolve the light. Unbiased is physically bouncing light to every pixel. Some biased settings are terribly slow and some blazing fast. It's a balancing act and in some cases a bewildering science.

The fire needs some work. Looks like a sparkler. But hats off if you're new to this and your already cranking this quality out.

Will it have 'TRUMP' emblazoned on the sides...??!!!

Nice one mate...!

Wow! And it was already perfect.
