I like to draw out many projects on paper before i get started.
Sometime the old just wing it appraoch is ok too.
Lately I may take a picture of something and try to make ideas with the paint program on the computer.
I have no CAD program and maybe it would be something I should look into.
Good old pencil and paper is usually the way I try to figure things out.
How to you plan out your projects?

Still use the ole pencil and paper method. It's just faster and easier to erase and adjust.

Try Google sketch-up. It's a free drawing program that let's you do 3D. I used it to layout my soon to be pole barn house.

Hand sketching, hand drafting, AutoCAD and Autodesk Inventor. I do it for a living.
