      I have just installe SU Pro 7, and intend to use the turorials. However, I am looking to draw house plans and pretty quick at using AutoCad 2002, and think it might be best to use this to get my plans worked out then model in SU. Tutorials typically cover a lot of things that I don't use and am wondering if there is a person, company, e-mail service or something that would let me contact them for specific questions without charging an arm and a leg. Maybe this forum is it? I can visualize very well what I want, I just want to make my learning curve as small as possible, but don't we all.

      Thank for any guidance you might send my way.

      Chris

        Welcome Chris, you've come to the right place, this forum is a great resource, it has helped me tremendously over the last year and half. Here's a few links to you tube videos for cad and Sketchup:
