This is my second job with a digital drawings. The kitchen sink is a little tilted, so I was wondering if you guys have a rule of thumb on what to line up to. The outer most line is the sink outer lip.
Basically, I am wondering if anything looks funny? If you need more details on anything I will provide them. Thank you!

Re: What do you guys think of this DXF drawing?
I make the sink lip parallel to the front countertop edge. To the eye it will look correct. Any other way and your home owner will be able to tell that it is crooked
The jacked up cabinet lines end up hidden by the overhang.
If you are shooting with LT(the way it came into my program it looks like it was)
Try shooting in "line" versus "cross" (upper right hand corner of the LT program) it will save you a ton of work from drawing segments between all those crosses

Re: What do you guys think of this DXF drawing?
The sink must be parallel to the front edge. Just like TJ said shooting crosses are adding a fair amount of time. just shoot a line and start new line on the sides. use auto fillet on the straight sides and fronts. That works great. Also it looks like you shoot more then 2 points on the straight lines. this will be a problem if you have a cnc saw. Crosses for me are at the start and end of a job in the same place. I normally choose a screw on a plug cover. I use them for hole locations, sink and cooktop centers. hope that helps a bit. will def work with the crosses but you need to erase them all and it looks jumbled up.

If you're ever retrofitting an apron style sink, the front edge rule must be disregarded. You line the back of the apron with the front of the cabinets. Yes, the top reveal on each side of the sink may be off a tad, but any difference in the overhang has to show up somewhere; math is cruel like that.
