      Hi. My name is David and I am a Sketchupaholic. . . .

      HI DAVID!!!!

      I, too am a notorious component non-namer. I spend too much time on SU forums. . . .and I get very insecure when I post something and no one responds to it.

      If I make it look easy...It is probably easy

        Hi, my name is Tom. I don't plan my models well. I just jump in. Which results in messy models and lots of frustration.

            HI All,
            I'm MALAISE, SketchUp addicted ( when I'm not travelling ). I collect "rubies" but hardly use the tenth of
            them.

              Hi, my name is Harry, I am addicted to SketchUp after only 4 weeks. I NEVER name groups, but it's because I only use them as a temporary thing, only ever have 1 at a time before turning what I am doing into a component.

              See all of my SketchUp models here.

                My name's Jon and I have over 800 Kerkythea files and over 1000 sketchup files. 😞
                Also, I never name groups or components and I never use layers, styles, or scenes. 😒

                  Great thread!

                  My name is Adam and I've been addicted to SU for the past 10 months and I rarely ever save .skm materials, but would rather rummage through a cluster of 15 different material folders all in different places to find the material I want. I also must admit that I cannot stay faithful to any one render programs, but rather sleep with a different renderer running for every night of the week.

                        Andrew here.

                        I find hotkeys are my down fall. 'Right hand on the mouse and left hand jumping around like a headless chicken....'

                        With my notebook on my lap, it only leaves my knees to steer the car and indicate if i feel the need.
                        bad hotkeys; very bad... 😕

                          Hi. My name is Daniel, and I....

                          am overly detailed and exact, to the point of being anal retentive.

                          do not save materials I create.

                          Rubies...rubies?! Isn't that a gemstone?

                          My avatar is an anachronism.

                            Hi

                            I"ve read all the posts in this thread even though it's 5:54pm on Sunday night and I have a project due tomorrow and have at least 30 hours of work left to finish it.

                            Can you all say procrastinate. Hmm I better go take a nap so I will be ready to cram 30 hours of work into 10.

                            Ok so If I can take a nap well then I can watch TV for a while...then I get hungry so I better get something to eat....oops I"m getting sleepy after all I better make a pot of coffee...WOW look at the time I now only have 5 hours before the project is due and have to cram 30 hours of work into 5 hours.....

                            OK I better stop typing now and due some work.

                              Hi, I'm Panga. I confess that I tried others famous 3D software in order to replace sketchup...but I always came back on SU I promess !!Definitly the better 3D modeler for lazy and impatient people like me...I also confess that I create layers to organize my model...but stop to use them after ten minutes... 😒

                                  This is a great book. Can't say I've mended my ways, but at least I know more about the problem. It has exercises and, if I ever get around to it, they might help....
