Cedar Half-Round Shingle Fill Pattern

[ghale]

Does anybody have a fill pattern for a cedar half-round shingle pattern? (see the attached picture) Patterns are a pain and I don't want to attempt this one. If not, is there some software out there that makes the process easier? Thanks

If you dont get it by the end of the day, i could make one with HatchKit really quick before i leave. I just have tog et some stuff done for now... Its a great program for those things...

BTW, where in Rochester are you?

Well,
I searched on Revit City this morning, and Cadalyst this afternoon. Nada. It would be a great help if you created this. I will have to look at HatchKit, because I know there will be more requests.

BTW Aaron - I work with SWBR Architects in downtown Rochester. I just recently saw a presentation from some of your folks at Dal Pos on the use of BIM for the Carousel Mall. It looks like your firm has gotten pretty far with BIM, and I hope we catch up to you soon.

Thanks in adavance for the help.

Oh, SWBR. Very cool! They (you) have a local office (formerly Brennan) LITERALLY down the street from my apartment, haha....

Let me fire up Hatchkit really quick and see what i can do.

Im assuming youll want it as a Revit Model Pattern, so it scales correctly, yes?

BTW, is the 6.25" to the bottom of the center of the circle, or the spring point?

I also dont have a width dimension...

[ghale]

Revit Model Pattern is perfect. The exact dimensions are not entirely important. The dimensions and picture came from a vinyl siding manufacturer. Thanks

Okay, i should have it for you soon... The only tricky part is Hatchkit wont let you draw circles, and wont import DWG. I did it with DXF, but it scales funny... And it makes the lines look like someone with bad caffeine shakes drew it.

Give me a bit...

Would you have a link to a site where I could learn more about this HatchKit program?

Thanks
