I've been using CAD in school for a class, and I find it easier to make buildings and rooms in CAD, so if any other mappers are in the same situation or want to try it out, that link is great.

hmm looks like a cool way to do it.
What does CAD stand for again. Ive heard it with CAD/CAM but isnt that something industrial like setting machines to build something?

CAD = Computer-Aided Design
CAM = Computer Aided Manufacturing

many of the new machines allow input from CAD/CAM programs to allow for tighter tolerances and measurements, than previous machines which required a manual approach.
