    It is possible if you convert to a format vanilla SketchUp can import.

    The entire image is still rectangular, or square in this case. As I wrote in my post, I made the pixels of the background transparent.

    ISO Standard pitch for M8 coarse is 1,25mm. Fine pitch is 0,75 mm.
    M6 has a 1,0 mm pitch.

    Thanks. I know that already. I chose the 1.0mm pitch for my tutorial and based it on the numbers in this table.

    Can anyone clarify whether there's a legitimate way to re-enable skp file preview, and if so, how can users ensure they're not engaging in any illegal activity when attempting to do so?
    Additionally, has the author been contacted regarding version 2.17 and its relationship to the current version 2.2.4?

    That is the very basics of it. Depending on the model you might want to render them as Vector or Hybrid to get vector linework. If you have plan or elevation views you might want to set some specific scale. Maybe you need to add dimensions or other text or tables. There are a lof of options.

    Thank you everyone for stopping here to read about my little graphic trick.

    Here is a quick and effective method of creating an artistic image from your SketchUP model. It was posted way back in 2005 on the original SU forum. The thread became so popular, it was active for over a year and a half and still could be found here

  • Is SketchUp the Right Tool for Woodworkers?

    Over the years, weā€™ve witnessed many woodworkers falling in love with and using SketchUp to design, plan and create some amazing projects. Still, for folks that havenā€™t learned SketchUp yet, we still get asked whether itā€™s the right tool for them. To answer, we created a video that answers the 5 questions we most often get asked by woodworkers when theyā€™re trying to decide if SketchUp is worth investing the time and money in learning:

    Is SketchUp a good tool for the types of projects I work on? Is SketchUp necessary, or can I keep doing things the way I already do? Is it hard to learn and do I need a background in using CAD or 3D design software? How long does SketchUp take to learn? Can I get by using SketchUp Free, or is it worth upgrading to SketchUp Go or SketchUp Pro?

    If youā€™re interested in SketchUp for Woodworking you can take a look at the video here:

    Then let me know if you have any questions or feedback. Thanks!

    Is SketchUp a good tool for the types of projects I work on?
    SketchUp is widely used by woodworkers for designing and planning woodworking projects. It offers a range of features and tools that can help you visualize your ideas, create detailed plans, and even generate accurate cut lists.

    Is SketchUp necessary, or can I keep doing things the way I already do?
    If you're already satisfied with your current workflow and tools, SketchUp may not be necessary. However, SketchUp can enhance your design process by providing a 3D modeling environment that allows you to view your projects from different angles and make more accurate plans.

    Is it hard to learn, and do I need a background in using CAD or 3D design software?
    SketchUp has a user-friendly interface, and many woodworkers find it relatively easy to learn. While prior experience with CAD or 3D design software can be helpful, it is not a requirement to start learning SketchUp. There are plenty of online tutorials, guides, and resources available to help beginners get started.

    How long does SketchUp take to learn?
    The time required to learn SketchUp can vary depending on your background and the complexity of the projects you want to undertake. With dedicated practice and consistent learning, you can become proficient in the basics within a few weeks or months. However, mastering more advanced techniques and features may take longer.

    Can I get by using SketchUp Free, or is it worth upgrading to SketchUp Go or SketchUp Pro?
    SketchUp Free is a web-based version with limited features, suitable for simple projects and basic design needs. SketchUp Go is not a recognized version of SketchUp as of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021. SketchUp Pro offers more advanced features, such as LayOut for creating construction documents, and it is the recommended version for professional woodworkers or those requiring additional functionality.

    There is a well know method of making a helix with only native tools that I have shown before.
    This is similar but gives you a solid object to work with. You can array it, Linear or Radial for very different results. It's difficult to fit this into the forum limit so it's a bit cut off.

    Sure, I'd be happy to provide you with a SketchUp interior design tutorial on how to create a floor plan. Here are the steps:

    Open SketchUp and select "File" > "New" to start a new document.

    Click on the "Rectangle" tool in the toolbar, and then draw a rectangle on the workspace to represent the walls of your room.

    Use the "Push/Pull" tool to extrude the rectangle upwards to create the walls of your room.

    Use the "Line" tool to draw lines within the rectangle to represent the interior walls of your room. This will help you to create individual rooms within your floor plan.

    Use the "Rectangle" tool to draw rectangles within your walls to represent the doors and windows of your room.

    Use the "Push/Pull" tool to extrude the rectangles outwards to create the doors and windows.

    Use the "Eraser" tool to erase any overlapping lines or surfaces.

    Use the "Text" tool to label each room and each door and window within your floor plan.

    Use the "Measure" tool to check the dimensions of your rooms and doors and windows, and adjust them as necessary.

    Use the "Paint Bucket" tool to add colors and textures to your floor plan, such as different flooring or wall colors.

    Save your floor plan by selecting "File" > "Save As" and choosing a file name and location.

    That's it! By following these steps, you should be able to create a basic floor plan for your interior design project in SketchUp. Good luck and have fun designing!

    what level of detail do you need? if it's just exterior - then extruding the beam and column shapes will do it. if you need the full rebar layout internally - that will be more complex. although there are a couple of concrete - rebar type plug-ins which would help.
