    Make it a component and save it to a component collection, then select and place it from the component panel whenever you need it.

    Hey guys I am desperate for very high resolution/quality satellite maps, I use Placemaker and I also use Nearmap but the resolution is not that great, I have tried using AI to upscale but that too does not really solve my issues. Is there another solution?

    I guess I did not answer your question fully a 30 frame per second video under 2 minutes long of a single House of the detail level that I was showing in that video would probably be around 3 hours in my experience with my machine. Changing the size and length you can easily get one under the 2-hour mark

    For a definitive answer you need to consult legal counsel. One thing is clear, if you are using SketchUp in any commercial way, you need to be using SketchUp Pro or SketchUp Shop. If you are charging people to see your tutorials, you can't legally do it with SketchUp Free or SketchUp Make.

    By using only two contours each time you are naturally creating hard edges at each join. Use more contours and get smoother transitions.

    What's your SU version, and What QGIS version? There used to a shp tool very long ago. Also have just found this, which may be a solution, or a path to one: https://forums.sketchup.com/t/importing-shapefiles-shp-to-sketchup-skp/59032/10 I can't help you more than that at moment. Haven't used SU for a while so it looks like folk are still doing interesting things with it.

    Yep! I totally agree. I wish that the new versions of sketchup would not always default to the newest version to save. This is really why. This constantly causes me trouble when I go to use a computer connected to a CNC cutter I have access to. Have to remember to save as ver 2015 or it just doesn't work. And I suspect it's forced obsolescence, not a mandate that the versions be incompatible. Aaargh! Oh and Pilou, that 6 is exactly the kind of thing I'm working from! That much I have, it's when the center of the bottom loop of the 6 becomes a closed cone that I get my problems.

    What is your go-to plugin to turn lines into tubes for such chair? I can't find one that would connect all the pipes smoothly.

    Just an update...It was a lot of trial and error but I got it to work! I feel so accomplished. I would make a note to any others trying to do this (or maybe I am the only knucklehead) that the "animation" does not show up when switching between scenes on the tray but only when switching between scenes on the tabs above the drawing window. Can't tell you how many times I would redraw and switch at the tray only to be very disappointed. However, best way to learn! Won't make that mistake again. Anyway, thanks again for your help!!

    @box said: The main problem is your hole isn't a hole. Should it go all the way through or is it a cavity? Is the size critical, as in, can it be slightly narrower so that it hits the flat bottom correctly? Thanks for drawing my attention to that. I looked at the drawing in Freecad and it appeared to look OK - until I read your response and looked at it again in wireframe. That showed strange extra faces, but I never thought it was to do with the hole being of larger diameter than the bottom face. I reduced the hole size and now it exports fine. Looks like I will have to rethink the design as the hole size needed is for tapping, and re-drilling before tapping the 3D printed output may not be satisfactory. We'll see. Thanks again
