Hi all, My son-law to be and my daughter are both architechs and they introduced me to a designing program called SketchUp which can be found at sketchup.com. It's an easy program to learn and its fun. I think its the best one that I have found that is free and productive. Have fun with it.
 
It is a good program. I mainly use it to do quick 3d versions of my cad files/projects to give clients an idea of how something will look in the end. Great selling tool and it's endless fun to play with.
 
I have it, and use it often. For alot of my presentations a lil trick I use to get accurate perspective drawings....

make it real quick in sketchup and pick a perspective that you like, then print it. then overlay some trace on it, trace the outlines, then render with marker or colored pencil. boom. done.

Anyways, whats this got to do with cigars and humidors?

I going to use SketchUp to design a large desk top humidor, thank you for asking. It's nice to see a future project in print, looks more professional.
 
Looks like it'd be useful for designing the man cave, walk in humidor or even a large cabinet. Nice find and good luck with your design. :)
