Free software to design a home and create materials list?
I know there are several websites that let you design floorplans, but are there any that will let me design a project home in 3D, and picture the studs and what not required for such project?
Surely there must be programs that let you input dimensions and such and automatically generate a materials list no? I'm trying to get a rough idea how much a certain structure will cost to build.
Obviously it's just a ballpark amount, but I intend to do the work myself, so I'm just trying to compile a materials list.

Some lumber yards will take your plans and develop a materials list for the materials that they can supply. I suggest you talk with one of them.
A simpler way to get a ball park estimate is to use the $$ per square foot method. There are several books available that let you do this. Go to Amazon and look for books on being your own contractor.
