I am just getting into model railroading with my husband. I am interested in building scale structures for his layouts.
Kits are very expensive, so I've decided I'll build a few to get the 'hang' of the construction process, but after that I want to build them myself.
I'm a computer geek - so the first thing I look for is software to assist with the process.
Has anyone used Sketchup to actually build models? I've seen some models out there, and am hoping I can use existing ones. But I'll need templates printed from them to cut out the pieces.
After you get over laughing at my naiveté -- please feel free to straighten me out!
Thanks...
