If it were me, I'd mention that we'll be using SW3D as the main design and documentation software for OBI. This would be a good opportunity to mention OBI - although it's a shame we don't yet have a website.
Following our modular approach, several parts of the chicken coop are themselves modules - the floor, doors, nesting boxes, etc - which can be assembled into different designs. I'm also using SW3D to model functional components, such as the chicken coop ( ). All the SW3D files are publicly available on our repo - for people to use and modify - and we'll continue to add more. The models were also used to create step-by-step build instructionals. Then I created another library of modules (walls, doors, windows, roof) and used it to design all the different greenhouses that appear on the infographic - as well as the one we actually built. I then used this library of building materials to design each module: walls, roof, doors, windows, etc. I started by designing and creating a library of building materials (using the Furniture Library Editor): dimensional lumber, glazing panels, plywood panels, hardware, etc. Although SW3D wasn't created for this specific application, it turned out to be - in my opinion - the best software for the job. This precisions enables us to test the feasibility of modules and structures before building them. I chose SW3D because it's so easy to use and understand, it enables libraries to be created and used with little effort, and it allows precise placement of objects through numeric coordinates. After modules have been built in the workshop, they are installed on site and coupled together - like legos. The walls are made of 4x8 modules and the roof is made of 4 x 16 modules. I would start by explaining that we do modular buildings - similar to pre-fab, but everything is fabricated on site, rather than in a factory.

Very user friendly for the first try - including easy edit and length modification, undo, copy/paste, etc. I don't understand what your workshop could consist of.įirst time use appears attractive - floor plans are easy to draw up and dimension, and components including doors can be dragged and dropped in. There's already some documentation to learn this software available at Thanks for your interest in Sweet Home 3D.
