Table with cabriole legs
-
I just released An Intermediate Google SketchUp Tutorial – Part 5B (http://www.srww.com/blog/?p=391) , which concludes Part 5. In this installment we completed the cabriole legs we started in Part 5A. As an example of tables that use the cabriole leg I made a quick and dirty modification to the Office Table. It uses the top we drew in Part 3 of this tutorial series. See the picture below. The knee in this example extends entirely between the legs. Often it is just a brace that finishes the look of the leg. I am not proposing this design as an example of period furniture; it is a mock up to show what cabriole legs might look like in a finished piece.
In the next and final installation of An Intermediate Google SketchUp Tutorial we will attempt a carving, that is the drawing of an oft used carving in woodworking. I think you will like it.

Dear Joe,
A very nice tutorial, but could you save .skp files as V6? I think there are quite a few members still working with that version. I like that you give a word document version of the tutorial, but a .pdf would be much smaller to store. The downloaded word document is around 2.3 MB. Hope you don't mind these comments.

Kind,
I appreciate any comment intended to be constructive and this one certainly is. Unfortunately I am not be able to get to this until Wednesday, when i will post Version 6 .skp files. I am not sure that a pdf will help much given the number of .png files in the document. But I will give it a shot. Thanks for the interest.

Kind,
Your wish is my command. I have made the requested changes. For the PDF versions go to http://www.srww.com/google-sketchup.htm . When you click on the links for the .skp files they are now version 6.

Dear Joe,
I seemed to have missed a few replies to requests, and yours was one.
Many thanks for the changes.
Kind regards,
Bob
