I used Illustrator to create precise measurements for a wood cutting shop to replace two support beams, 50 balustrade pieces and railing for the balcony of a home.The wood was old and rotted, so most of the wood balcony pieces needed to be precisely cut and replaced.

I photographed the balustrade pieces to get their detailed contour and size and use in Illustrator as a template to draw the precise shape.

The shape and dimensions details provided to the wood cutter for the wood milling machine.

Handrail shape and dimensions. Also lengths for joins at different angles for balcony which is not perfectly straight across the back of the home.

Railing with sections joining other segments and the balustrades below.

The shape and dimension details provided to the wood cutter for the wood milling machine of the large beam below the balcony that needing replacement. I used InDesign to combine the illustrations and photos to put the project in context and created PDF documents to share with them.
