I'm still a Revit newbie and am working with the OOTB families. The L-shaped counter with sink hole is the best fit for this kitchen (I'm modeling my apartment building as a first real-world project) but there is a column in the corner. I tried a straight counter + a counter with sink hole but that's worse. It doesn't seem to be curable and I don't know if I'll have to create a shaft in order to "trim" the counter. Even if that works, it would be nice to have a backsplash at the column.
I've searched for answers and came across a 2014 discussion where the answer was to create a family. I haven't done that yet, but may have to "[wo]man up" as they said. But would it be good to have a counter by sketch? Is that a decent wishlist item?
You can try in-place mass to create families with more flexibility to fit in specific condition
Thanks, q.yangN43DM! I forgot to mention that I have Revit LT 2021 so I'm not sure I can model in place.
So the issue is that LT doesn't have In-Place Modeling and you don't want to have to model the countertop in a Family then load and place in the Project? Why not? I'm lost.
I can create families in LT, but it was the "in-place" that reminded me of one of the (surprisingly few) limitations. See attached clip.
I really will eventually get to family creation, but not just now.
Normally I use roof or floor to represent counter top. It is one way to create custom sketch item without needing specialized family. If you need to tag it, then you may have to create family. How I approach this would be to create void family and set it to cut when loadable.
Place the void family on top of the countertop OOTB family. Then use the CUT and it will cut thru the countertop family.
