In 5:28, when you reconstuct the surface of a point cloud, how make you for cut surfaces to the other one, and merge then for finaly recreate a new 3d model ?

A question: I have a registered (42 setups) laser scan of a building, from which I am trying to produce deliverables for an architect. I can import this as a point cloud (or convert to a mesh) as an obj file and have even been able to sketch / trace wall outlines, in Sketcher, however, I cannot convert the sketch into lines or a draft, to produce wirelines / polylines that could be saved as a .dxf, from which an architect could make plans, elevations and sections to his spec. Any hints gratefully received
