They can still do a cad drawing for you at a cost, I used this service once but wasn’t to pleased with it, wasn’t symmetrical at all the edges. So I do all my own drawings and layout View attachment 104514 View attachment 104515 View attachment 104516 View attachment 104517 View attachment 104518

Has the 2nd drawing got an overlay on it?

No just two sheets of paper taped together

what's going on here then? ............just curious.

It’s just where I put two pieces of paper together. You know what curiosity did !! Just saying

so it is an overlay then...... and by doing this you can interchange the designs....it is a good thing.

No it’s a one off drawing, I do one for every job I do

I just get the customer to pick the field and border. I've had a original style cad before and they're pointless imo

Yes the customer picks field and border, but I still do drawing so I can show them how it will look and so I know where to start and finish. Also so I can count how many individual tiles they need

I don't think the drawings do the jobs justice. I imagine you triple check your measurements on the floor anyway? The drawings are a waste of time I think but each to their own and I imagine some customers like the effort

Also that’s not a bad idea about an overlay, as I said original style cad useless
