        Hi everyone out there, just joined this forum as I've been a Sketchup user for a few years now but never really joined a forum.

        I do a lot on Sketchup and also use Kerkythea more frequently recently, hope to be able to help with any problems I can and also hope that you guys will be able to help me with things.

            Hello All

            New member - probably all set to ask the usual stupid questions you have been asked a thousand times before....

            Anyway, I am a monumental mason, just getting the hang of v6, producing some simple designs for my customers. Thorny problem at the moment of producing a circular vase that looks like it has been turned on a lathe, various profiles, and can't find a way to extrude a curved surface.

            Anyone point me in the right direction?

            Many thanks

              Hello steve,

              Have you found the follow-me tool yet? its a good un for doing lathe type stuff.

              If not their is a quick intro here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOxrFN7JbiQ

              Theres another one here, which is a bit more specific to your purposes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_v5cvmTy_xY&feature=related

              And as for extruding curved faces, there isnt a way to do it natively, although there is a rather excellent script called joint push/pull that will do it, you can find it here: http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=6708&hilit=+Plugin

                Hello all...
                My name is Yudi from Jakarta, Indonesia. I'm a new user of sketchup. So I think I'm gonna be asking a lot of things about sketchup.
                I learn a little about Sketchup and use it especially in architectural models and interior design. And i'm very happy if we can share everything about SKP.

                Just an ordinary Sketchup user

                        Hey everybody! I am Mr. Jump Man V.2
                        I think this is my forth forum that ive been in... All the other ones kinda turned into ghost towns. First off i want to say im not a noob to sketchup from the best of my knowledge, ive been using it constantly ever since october-12-2005, three years ago. I normally upload models to the 3d warehouse and so far have about 824 uploaded models ( Although the first account i had was mainly junk models, first account = 601 of those models, so i made another account to be liberated of this junk account. ) If you ( whoever "you" is or are ) are wondering what the "V.2" after my name is, it is because i had that junk account and made another. I hope to learn a lot of information, as well give, while i am at this forum.

                        Check out some of my models at the Link below

                          Welcome to GSCF Mr. Jump.

                          This one will not turn into a 'Ghost town' I'm certain of that, with over 10 thousand users you will be in great company.

                          Nice models by the way.

                            Hi Scott and welcome. Coen seems to have added you to the "Google SketchUp Team" usergroup already; note that you can make sticky topics and post announcements in the forums if you wish.

                            Happy rubying with the folks here - there are a couple of very talented scripters around! πŸ‘

                              hi there!

                              i'm new here but i've been modeling using sketchup for 1 year already and i think now, i've encountered the most complicated modeling phase in my life by trying to revive a classic structure built in our country by Welton Becket. the big problem is, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO THE CREATE AN EAGLE IN SKETCHUP FROM SCRATCH. it's the only missing piece in the facade before it's halfway completed.

                              can anyone give me tips on how to do it? any would be greatly appreciated.. thanks!

                                Welcome 'absolutelyhawk',

                                You might check out 3D Warehouse. Search for eagle and there is
                                quite a few there that might be helpful.

                                  Hello all,
                                  I've been using sketchup for about a year in the construction industry. I'm an architect that converted to the dark side... Construction. I work for a large general contractor in Denver, Colorado - Mortenson Construction. Sketchup Rocks and I'm trying to learn more about the software so I can push it with all the BIM and Virtual Design and Construction We do.

                                  Looking forward to learning from you all.
                                  Rick

                                      Hello Everyone,

                                      About 4 months ago I found out about SU, at the time I was working on a student project with a friend in school for architecture. SU opened so many doors for making my mental creations a reality, I am no professional and I don't have money for school so I teach myself through the resources I find on the vast world wide web. I have become very interested in architecture and building modeling etc. one day I hope to become a professional (really that means make money for the family to maintain) and I need all the help I can get.

                                      See You Around,
                                      d.
