Drawing houses and other rectalinear objects:

One thing that I definitely do differently now is to construct this type of object using a randomly drawn horizontal (on screen) line. Then I use the offset command to establish wall lengths. The process is repeated for the vertical lines. The trim and/or fillet (0 radius) command can be used to make the corners and chop off excess lines. It is much faster than drawing in each line by length especially if there are lots of jogs in walls.
