jeffcraze 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2010 I was panicking when I saw my blog during lunch time abt jaskel's post on the MBR thingy.. Luckily I sms jaskel and ask him abt it and he told me that he will resolve the problem for me.. if not I think can and sweat buckets sia.. Keeping fingers crossed that he is able to solve the problem for us.. Tomolo hubby will be gg up in the afternoon for some FS stuffs and guess he can see the works for himself..

blueocean 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2010 Hi Jaskel, I'm impressed with your work ! And also your flair with using 3D sketchup ! Have you tried using Intericad software ? It is easy to use and allows you to do space planning and 3D rendering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is easy to use and allows you to do space planning and 3D rendering. Thanks for your compliment. That is 1 software that I'm going to purchase and learn. And I believe its will upgrade my skills and presentation to potential customers. Just want to give a more value added services to hse owner. To be frank, I think most contractors unable to come up with 3D....mostly they outsource it. Edited May 19, 2010 by jaskel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaskel 2 Report post Posted May 20, 2010 (edited) uh yeah, i agree not nice... but how come they will do wrongly? I thought would see some sample before they come and do up the window? The sample is correct, I wanted a 2 pcs sliding window panels instead of 3 cos having 3 tracks mean larger width, which will protrude out a bit in the bedroom. 2 tracks will flash with the wall which is nicer. Maybe becos the previous window was 3 tracks so they made 3 tracks back. But anyway, they had changed to what I asked for.
