So, what we need to start thinking about now is extruding our walls, and also more importantly, pushing those structural openings through the walls so they are actually a hole in the wall, rather than they are at the moment, in the drawing, 3D solids. So we've got a new drawing for you. It's called Developing The 3D Unit.dwg. Now just before we start, make sure you're in the southwest isometric, like so, and also make sure that you're in the 2D Wireframe visual style. It'll make your life a lot easier at this…
