            Excellent, Excellent!

            Great to see your work.

            Given your subject matter you might look at other methods of rendering, ala

                Wow, very intricate, well-modeled. 👍

                  What kind of drawings are you supplying? Structural or piping? Got any examples?

                  Great work by the way. Good to see sketchup being used in the real world.

                    So this is designed to be functional? I mean, each pipe in the model has a specific function, not there just for show?

                      There are so many details here that indicate attention to safety and management of product. You have even included secondary containment in case of spills. There is expansion relief and pressure equalization using elevated tanks, etc. All to achieve separation with responsible use of active systems only where necessary and in an economical manner. Excellent modeling and rendering. Well presented.

                      I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

                        Great job Redfox11. That is the kind of drawings I would love to learn how to do!!! Please do show more.

                          Yes, this is functional model, I made it for purpose of oil separation. I used flow chart and pipe and instrumentation diagram ( i took part in design of this object). My oil and gas department (where i work) isnt large and we havent money for expensive Autoplant or PDS so I desided to use free SketchUp to design piping and equipment.

                            Thanks. This just keeps getting more impressive. Now, just one more dumb question and then I'll leave you alone - what is "oil separation"? Separating the various grades of oil?

                              Shortly - we need to separate well fluids produced from oil and gas wells into gaseous and liquid components.
                              Separation can be carried out in several stages. You may burn the resulting gas or you may prepare it and use as fuel for electric station.

                                I`m both piping and mechanical engineer so my job is to suply drawings of piping.
                                But to find collisions I need structural drawings, so in this model I used help of structure engineers from my department.

                                I can show some examples of final drawings, which I received by 2D export from SketchUp in AutoCAD. The application of the text, dimensioning, I performed in AutoCAD.

                                Common view in SketchUp working area

                                Plan in SketchUp prepared for 2D export

                                Exported 2D plan. I use colors to separate elements by layers

                                Final result of the work in AutoCAD. Piping drawing.

                                Section plain 1-1 after 2D export

                                Final section plane 1-1 with text and dimensions.

                                        Nice job on the pipe work mate, I know myself just how hard this would be without the option of SU and NOT end up with an issue somewhere!

                                        Reminds me of a job given to me as a drafty and still a teenager. I had to do all the layout drawings, pipework, steel fabrication, concete and reo details and scheduling and ALL BY HAND and with just drawing board and calculator - problem was the project was 4 cylindrical tanks with conicle roofs and octagonal walkways / access around the top and landing on the cone. BY HAND WT_? For a kid! Talk about thrown in the deep end!

                                          it must have been worth the effort in 2012? was Layout not available for the 2D layout. Wonder how the data associated with the entities were managed. Was it pluggins and ruby script?
