My name is Alan J. Maki, owner of Beyond Basics Draft-ing & Design and I have been using MacDraft since 1985. Growing up in a family owned chain of Home Centers I have learned the building industry inside and out. I started my career doing marketing for our Home Centers and in 1990 I started my own Drafting & Design company. Since then I have been designing libraries that allow me to be more efficient in the design process. Thanks to my librar-ies and MacDraft I can produce an average of 160 home plans a year working a 10-15 hour week.

It has a very intuitive user interface which means it is much easier to learn and use than other professional level programs. If you buy the box product there is a printed manual something you do not receive with other similar programs.

Symbol libraries are available to help with the drawing process. These can be dragged and dropped into your drawing saving time and money. You can also create your own symbols for use in your particular specialisation. MacDraft enables you to open and edit AutoCAD files so you can interact with other profes-sionals that use PC’s.
