There is something I don't understand about drawing programs. Maybe one of you can explain how I would go about doing this:
I would like to create an object to draw my plan on. Object might be the wrong word. What I'd like to do is create a single sheet of Adams foam board inside a drawing program. I want it to "know" that is 20x30 inches, and that it's thickness is due to 3 layers of material (paper/foam/paper).
I'd like to be able to load a foam board into a drawing/cad/design etc program, then draw my cuts on it, including A and B folds. I want to make these cuts inside the program. Some of the cuts only removing two layers of the board so I can see how it folds before I cut the real thing.
Can this be done? It would make life a lot easier for my non-engineer brain.
