Thereof, can I draw my own house plans?
It doesn't take much in the way of resources to draw up your own house plans -- just access to the Internet, a computer and a free architectural software program. If you prefer the old-school method, you'll need a drafting table, drafting tools and large sheets of 24-by-36-inch paper to draft the plans by hand.
