| Method | Return Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| inches(i, f) | float |
i is an interger, or full inch measurements. For fractional inches specify them as f. The math behind this is i+f |
| feet(f) | int |
f is the number of feet you want to convert into inches. The math behind this is f * 12 |
Examples:
| Measurement | Method |
|---|---|
| 6" | inches(6) |
| 6 1/2" | inches(6, 1/2) |
| 4' 3" | feet(4) + inches(3) |

The house is built up of several layers to make editing and sharing among the community easier. Layers are listed just like you would build a house, from the bottom up.
frame_walls.scadsheet_floor.scadframe_floor.scad
Right now the only contract between each layer is the start_height variable that gets passed into each layer. When the house supports the ability to resize both width and length, additional variables will be added and documented.
