      Hey. I downloaded sketchup yesterday. Never used any program like that before.

      This is my first sketch, what do you think?

        Hi Costafinkel and welcome!

        Not a bad start after a day for sure!

        Am I seeing varying wall thickness on that building (in the windows)?

            Best is to array components that already glue to a face and cut holes:

                  I'd say it's too late holmes 😉

                    That's what I did.

                    The others are right. It's easy to get started, but once you go through the tutorials, it's dangerously addictive.

                    Here's one that helped me with work flow: http://www.martinrinehart.com/models/tutorial/tutorial_toc.html

                    It's good, but there are one or two flaws later in the lesson in some of the Ruby code coordinates. Take your time and you'll see the mistakes. But overall, a great tutorial.
