Clark -

Thanks... I think LayOut would be a great tool for shop drawings (bent, sections, etc) - as you can dimension right on over the embedded model - so you can set up various views, cuts, etc - and then do a detail set in LayOut without adding a bunch of stuff to slow down your model.

And, as you can bring in multiple models to embed - you could do a LayOut template for piece drawings generated out of your TFRubies. - so eventually instead of having 30 or 40 separate files they would all be referenced in a single (or maybe 2-3) LayOut documents... which make printing to scale, adding notes, titleblocks, repetitive details, etc - pretty easy.

No, I don't think its perfect - but for ~$500 it a great start for a budget CAD system for TF, woodworkers, and even building designers...
