      Hiya,

      Would someone be able to tell me how I go about making a proper 3D cylinder railing that curves round on corners in Sketchup?

      I’ve tried but haven’t go very far 😞

      Thanks,
      SA

        I use Tig's PipeAlongPath ruby for railings.
        You can find it here about halfway down the page:

        I made a tutorial using this script.
        Hope it helps.

            thats a very good tip to me too. i used to create handrail by just pin point centre lines, create posts(and paste them in order) and then run the follow me to create railings/balustrades...
