Crafty Amigo Tutorial: Design Your Woodworking Project! 

This site is kick-ass! Thank you so much

this site is amazing. Couple things that would make it better would be if you could rotate view without having to grab the tedious cube in the bottom corner. And when you go to move parts it doesn't change your whole view

This program is amazing, SOOOO much more intuitive than SketchUp! If you're interested in suggestions, can you add a 1x5 inch wood option? Also, I second the need for a ruler/measuring tool and a copy paste function. Finally, could you add a feature that allows you to extend the length of a group of pieces. For example, if I want to extend the height of a box, currently I need to delete the top pieces in order to extend the side piecees. But it would be nice to be able to select all the side pieces and extend them as a group without needing to delete the top pieces. But again, this is awesome for those of us who struggle with numbers.

This program is really great. Using it to draft my bar counter. Thank you so much.

thank you, i was trying to figure out how to add parts. Day 1 for me designing a custom bunkbed

Amazing! I have been looking for this software for years. I am not a woodworker by any stretch of the imagination, and I love the simple interface. It mimics my build style. Grab a piece of wood cut it to length and put it in. I dont want to spend days modeling parametric lumber, I just want to click and place. You have made that a reality. I am sure you have quite a few features you are working on and will definitely be watching the progression of this software, and finally building the pieces that i want to. You are doing amazing work. In the future, I hope to see some features to distribute, align, and preselect lengths to connect parallel items.

A ruler tool to select 2 points and see dimensions would be quite helpful.

Hello, can i copy and paste material instead of choose a new one and resize it again?

Great tool-smooth, quick, and with just the right features. As a Dutch user, I noticed that the basic materials are in inches and have different base size than available for me. For example, a 2x2 inch (50.8x50.8 mm) piece is not available in our local hardware stores; the closest is 44x44 mm. While there is an option to change the length (also in centimeters), is there an option to manually adjust the width and height of the material as well?

Seems like a great tool (although missing some basic features like copy/paste). However, there's no information about or indication of nominal wood size vs actual wood size, nor can I add custom wood sizes/pieces to account for these differences. I feel like this should be a fundamental feature for a program that is meant for designing woodworking projects and generating a parts list.

I'm trying to rotate a piece on different axis. I saw the option to rotate XYZ only one time. The option is longer there. How do I get the XYZ option to come back for rotation?

Also, it keeps adding .13 to the length of pieces. I need a piece to be exactly 12" but no matter what number I enter it keeps adding .13". How do I stop that from happening?

I have looked for so long for a good program to do woodshop projects. I'm old and can't seem to grasp Sketchup. I really like what you have here, but want to know how to do framing layout for a sauna I'm designing/building. The basic wall dimensions are 6'd x 6'h x 8'l with 16" centers. I've not figured out how to use this to show dimensions between wall studs... Thanks

As a former teacher, this was a mess. I love the website but this should have been completed in steps with a finished product to demonstrate the process - just my opinion.

How come the MOVE option isn't available on my third piece? I am trying to make a simple work bench table frame from 2x4s.

So, there's no way to put anything at angles other than 90°?

We need free control of the camera =)
