Hi, I'm new to onShape and heard it would be a good platform to help me design a bbq island for my backyard. I've been watching tutorialsand still can't figure it out. Any pointers? Thanks!

    What part do you have trouble with?

    Just not knowing where or how to begin? or how to sketch?

    If you are just designing a brick bbq and are new to parametric modeling - i would totally do it in Lego!!!! :)

    Start on the top plane, sketch a rectangle, and extrude with new option. 

    Create another rectangle and extrude with add.

    Eventually you'll need to create a rectangle and extrude with remove.

    load bbq
