What's in the file
- Three blocks
- CHAIR_DINING_FEDERAL_PLAN, CHAIR_DINING_FEDERAL_FRONT and CHAIR_DINING_FEDERAL_SIDE. The plan's insertion point is the back-left corner; the elevations sit at floor level.
- Layers
- The outline is on layer 0 with ByBlock colour, so each block takes the layer you insert it on. Detail lines are on I-FURN-DETL and dashed hidden edges on I-FURN-HIDN, so you can switch either off.
- Size
- W 483 × D 521 × H 908 mm. Measured by the museum, so check it against the piece you're specifying, and scale it if yours differs.
- SketchUp
- The DXF for SketchUp is the same block with a surface in every closed area, so the Paint Bucket fills each one in one click. Import it with Merge coplanar faces ticked: how to import it.
- Use
- Free for your own projects, including drawings for clients. Please don't share it as part of a block library.
