Can anyone direct me to a good tutorial for creating and working with land slopes in SketchUp? Thanks.

Is this what you are looking for?
Or do you need more of a Cad-import tutorial?

Check out the base camp videos from the last one back in June. There is one about an hour long devoted entirely to this subject. It's very good.

Sorry I don't know the link. Just search the forums here and you'll find it.

Thanks for the links and the tip. I'll look into these.

Here is the 3D Basecamp video I think you are referring to. It is hosted by Daniel Tal and is called Working With Terrain and Other Irregular Surfaces

Hi Sepo
I have checked your comment. I did a test and it fell without problems. The TUT is in Portuguese. If you want to try the download link:

The link works now. However I do not speak Portuguese... Any chance to have it in English.
hint hint. Thanks

Hi Sepo
Sorry, for me it is much easier to translate from English to Portuguese, contrary to this would be very difficult. Try to see if Mr Edson could not do it.
Cheers

No probs...hopefully Edson will chime in.

Wowsers, I considered translating it, but there is a LOT of info in there. THat would take me the better part of the rest of my life to translate. Maybe in time.....
