        Lovely model. πŸ‘ The wood flooring doesn't work for me, though. I think a nice studio setup would be better suited for this.

          I agree with Tom. Lovely section!

          Although this has just reminded me we need to change all the timber window frames in our house in the new year. We were gonna choose PVC but we've decided on powder coated aluminium. Hope it works out OK. πŸ˜•

            Thank you too. Good luck with the new windows!

            A new version...

              Looks excellent, nice job.
              My only comment would be regarding the glass itself, perhaps it's the lighting but it's not clear at the edge that there are three separate pieces of glass. The sealant around the edge is a black mastic which should be visible between the glass panes below the spacer.It is probably there but the materials are too similar to see it perhaps. In a section drawing it would have a distinctly different pattern fill.
              Sorry, but having constructed a million of these things over the years it's the little things that hit your eye and as a technical image it's purpose would be to show the details.

                I'm not sure if it's there, I used a bad jpg to trace this and such details are missing here I think πŸ˜‰

                  Ah Ok, that explains it.
                  If you want to know exactly I can draw it for you, but if you are just doing it for fun you don't need the details.

                    This was the only reason for this model, I saw an advertisement in a passive house magazine and tried to reproduce it as a little practice... Nevertheless, thank you for your offer!
