Church Pew
-
Dear All,
My wife and I church sit the first Sunday of every month so that the church can stay open for visitors for 2 hours in the afternoon. This time I took my laptop and passed the time modelling one of the pews.
Regards,
Bob

Bob,
That is really cool. I built an alter lecturn for our church some time back. I was not using SketchUp at the time, but modeled it afterward. I'm also going to be building the prayer rail for our church as soon as I can get caught up on the other stuff. That I modeled in the design process and will be using export pictures of the parts as I build. It was very cool to be able to model a couple different ideas to show to the minister and other members of the church counsel to decide on which design. -
Dear Jerry,
Thank you for your kind words. I enjoy relaxing using Sketchup, and some of the features on the pew were a bit thought provoking, particularly the seat braces with the curved bevelled section intersecting a flat.
Please post your lecturn if you have a chance.
Regards,

I thought I had that in storage on my web site, but I guess not. I'll check at home this evening. Did post about another piece of alter furniture I made in another thread, though.

Beautiful model.
Did you eyeball the dimensions or did you take a tape-measure to church? -
Dear Gidon,
Thank you for your kind comments.
I took a tape measure to church with me, and so the pew is pretty much to scale. As I wrote in my opening post, my wife and I church sit the first Sunday of each month, and so I plan model more bits and pieces over the coming year. I think I might have a go at the church door next month.
Regards,
Bob
