Free garage layout tool?

[wannabridin]

Hello GJ.

I was wondering if anyone had any good and simple to use layout programs/apps to help me visualize and plan my garage space. I'm currently running out of room and am convinced in my head that I can make more efficient use of space by moving some of my big items around.

I conventionally use 1/4" grid paper and then simply make cutouts of the moveable items, but I'd like to try it on the computer as well.

I've tried Google sketchup, but can't really get the hang of it. Any suggestions? Thanks!

I was in the same boat a while back. Ended up using Sweet Home 3D. Free and works ok,

Excellent, I'll give it a shot. Any other suggestions?
