Just to kick things off, here's a peak at the Pattern Tool I'm working on right now.

The tool's dialog looks like this:

Thanks Alfred, this would be useful. Does the Pattern Tool have the ability to be customized by the user? For instance x, y, size, and pattern that reflects different materials?

Paul,

These are all fixed sized blocks/bricks/stones, and they are all created by Matt Arnold. It was about three weeks of work, and for maybe half that time I felt like a confused old man that would be walked out the door of any normal company! But it finally came into focus and it all came together.

Matt has an idea for an algorithm to create stone walls. We’ll see but right now I’m flat burned out on this.

I see you haven't lost your sense humor Alfred. It also appears you've increased your work load with the User Forum. Whatever you choose to do I'm grateful for it.
