[mailtomac1860]

sorry..i forgot wgere i was when i posted

are there tuts other than the pdf included..?

some user forums post tutorials from more experienced users on spcific issues

my thing right now is section and callout details and detail sweep profiles

i agree w those who say autocad is redundant and unnecessary

also more door window and plumbing families from manufacturers
for specific products..
is there a list of maufacturers suppling families for thier products?
thanks mac

Hi Mac,

For the Tutorials, in revit, click on "Help" then "Tutorials".

For the Families, Refer to the supplied content and the web library and RUGI (currently not running ).

There is no published list that I know of that covers Manufacturers produced families. There is a link to the Woodworking Guild that has many cabinet items and also Anderson Windows on the web library.

There were quite a few Kohler fixtures that were on RUGI originally but I think they had been converted from somewhere else, as they are not modifiable or parametric (not that a Kohler fixture is either! But they can provide a good basis for representing something else sometimes, right?)

There were some Progress lighitng fixtures on RUGI create by some of our family masters that post around here. There are also many Pella-based windows on RUGI which can be adapeted to other manufacturers.

But other than Andersen and the Woodworkers Council, I'm not aware of any other manufacturers who have created families.

...Woodworkers Council...

Just a point of clarification, it is the Woodwork Institute
The casework items are at www.wicnet.org/manual_images.asp
