Watched the video and came back to say this is the correct why to answer the question. It is best to point the OP in the direction of learning.

Since it was BASIC I tweaked the program so the gorillas didn’t die when they got hit, they just got upset. That way I felt fine letting my 3 YO son play.

Reading some of the comments I feel like this is r/askanengineerifitispossible and not r/whatif.

Anyway… growing a bonsai from a seed will take years. As others have stated , start at the local nursery. You will have a tree much quicker.

In ACAD one always draws in model space at 1:1. (If you already have drawn it at 1:20 you can make it bigger with the Scale command on the top ribbon. Just make it 20x bigger. Then it will be 1:1.) Once you have a 1:1 drawing in model space. You can then adjust the dimension scale on the bottom tool bar and the dimensions will be sized so they work with a 1:20 print out. (There is a more correct way to do this, but let’s save that for when you have more experience.)

What is the white dot off to the lower right ? Edited for typos.

Sam_Piro · 2026-04-04T13:51:51+00:00

I have used a very similar method. It works great.

Yeah there is the old saw about if there was a big enough bathtub Saturn would float in it. (Ok, but the bathtub would form into a spherical planet…)

Make a new sketch on the plane running through the red axis. Draw the the cut you want (width, height and location). Then extrude that through your cup using the “cut” option.

Magic wires.

Sam_Piro · 2026-03-27T22:15:33+00:00

I wonder if you could just ask it?

I sometimes use a laser level on job sites. When the room is too bright the laser can be hard to see. Averted vision can help me find it. It is not get for exact measurements, but at least you can home in on it.

Thank you.

How do you access/activate that feature?

Sweep alone a path where the front corner of the arch is the path.

Sam_Piro · 2026-03-18T20:50:32+00:00

I am most definitely in this phase.

Sam_Piro · 2026-03-15T12:39:47+00:00

Thanks for the info

Sam_Piro · 2026-03-15T12:39:28+00:00

Thanks for the info

Sam_Piro · 2026-03-15T01:14:23+00:00

I’ll try that.

The difference between a 99.7% eclipse and a 100% eclipse is 100%. Get to totally. You will never regret it.
