Wondering easiest way to draw brick columns. Make a wall that is just a brick, then draw it in corners, or simply make it a solid and add texture. It would be nice to have it in your wall library but I can't figure out a way.

I use "3-course Block Pier" in the Post library most times.

I just use the solid function and change the surface to brick. For basic ones anyway

Usually the post that is required is a lot smaller than what the client wants for a column capped with brick.
Which means that its just a 6x6 or something or maybe a 3-2x6 and then I just draw a 2x4 brick wall around it.
