      As a learning experience, I have picture of a hood in our kitchen I’d like to draw in SU. Can I post it and get advice on how I might accomplish this?

      What are the file specs on what can be uploaded here?

      Sorry if this isn’t in the proper part of the forum. Please advise.

      Thank you.

        To put in post when you upload photo copy link from table where write Direct Link for Layouts.
        Than press img and past link.

          Thanks!

          The bottom detail isn’t all that important so I didn’t shoot it.

          Chimney: 11” deep, 10” wide, about a 3” radius on the corners. I can Push/Pull the chimney ok. I made the radius with GuideLines and the Arc Tool. Is that right?

          The base is a lot more complex for me. The stainless band is arched forward about 4”, plus it has tighter radiused corners… so it’s not just a single arc coming off two lines. Then there’s the shape of the hood itself.

          Thank you.
