Chronic Assembly Manipulation Disorder (CAMD)

CAMD is a progressive cognitive condition caused by prolonged exposure to OST and QuickBid assembly manipulation tools, particularly when assemblies must be bent, twisted, rotated, and resized repeatedly to match field conditions.


So the brain damage caused by using OST for over 2 decades rears its head occasionally. After years of never being able to get some formulas just right , or bending and twisting the product to extreme, I realize many of my QB assemblies are not going to be useful in ZZT. Which is fine. However, the speed I am gaining in ZZT is quickly diminished when I go to add assemblies that are a bit more complex. Concrete Footings, for example. Yes, I will have to go in, watch some training vids, and read, but in the meantime my project does not get finished.

Yes, I can hear the violins now....

But, with that said, PS used to have the means for people to give, barter and sell assemblies. Is this possible in ZZT?

For example, I would like some basic concrete assemblies where I can visualize the rebar, saddles, & ties, for example.

Hi Mark, currently this is done in zzTakeoff by Stephen or James and on a very limited or special conditions and most within customers workspaces. We do intend on having a plugin store in the next few months.
