Practice Exercise (Optional)

1. Open the First Floor Plan - Dining Area plan view of the Starting Point file.
2. Create an in-place component to model a dining room table that fits the unique triangular geometry of the walls using the image below as reference.

• Create the table using two separate extrusions: one for the table base and another for the table top. Use the tracing lines in the plan view as a reference for dimensions.
• The table top should be 4-inches thick with its top surface located 32 inches off the floor. The table base should extend from the floor to the bottom of the table top.
• Choose a material for these extrusions that is similar to cherry wood.
• Use the Place Component tool to place chair components of type Barrel around the custom table as shown in the image below.
