      Hello all just thought I would quit lurking and introduce myself. My name is Cory I am from northwest Pennsylvania. I work for my father at Barens Inc we sell pressure washers, parts & accessories all wholesale, all over world.
      I have been here since I turned 16 and am now 31, I started at the bottom scrubbing toilets and sweeping floors, pulling orders packing orders, manufacturing, accnts payable accnts receiving.
      We have a few in house brands that we have manufactured in china. I am now learning SketchUP to design some of our parts & accessories. Pressure Washer Frames, Hose Reels, High Pressure fittings & swivels. And whatever else the boss wants designed.
      The ultimate goal is to be able to send a technical drawing/blueprint to our manufacturer in china and them be able to build from it.
      I would say I am making good progress learning this cool little program, I have been playing with it for only 6-7 weeks so far and have learned a bunch from this great site you all have here. And would like to thank you all for the info you have all provided so far and for the help I am sure will be needed in the future.
      It amazes me how much better you all have made the vanilla sketchup with your plugins and ruby scripts.
      I am also going to be learning autocad in time because I am not sure which will be better for our needs. But I will be focusing on sketchup for now.
      Thanks again & nice to meet you all.

              Hi all...noob here. I'm a remodeler in CT looking to learn as much as possible quickly on SketchUp. Looks like a great program and I'll be eventually designing additions, built-ins, basements, etc with this tool to help increase the professionalism of my company and hopefully make a few extra $$ and close deals. The forum looks like a nice resource for this pursuit and I look forward to be a contributing member some day.

              No questions yet but I'm sure I'll be full of them in the upcoming weeks.

                I am an ex-graphics artist, now master electrician specializing in overseas construction at american embassies and have used SU on more than one building remodeling project, at work and at home. I have been using the free version of SU, but I didn't make much progress until I worked my way through a few tutorials. Now, I build all my projects in SketchUp before I start the real thing. One thing I know for sure is that it would be easier to build models if I knew more shortcuts and tools. I got here following a link to Curviloft. I can see now that there is a whole lot more to SketchUp, especially with plug-ins. Thanks for the Forum!

                    πŸ˜’ Ok hey guys, so I am new to SketchUP, I hope someone is awake to help me, I am from South Africa. My name is Anne-Marie and I am busy drawing a house, eventually I will have to draw a whole factory, now I am panicked because I had the SU Podium as a free plugin, now that was a year ago, it has expired... Is there a plugin I can download that is user friendly, and foolproof?? 😳

                    Great to see so many people here!!!

                            Hi, I'm Theo from Oss and I joined the forum to download the bezierspline plugin. About 5 years ago I made a 3d model of a boat and now I have no idea how I made the curvy lines on the boat back then. Hopefully I can come to the same result with the plugin.

                                      Hello,
                                      I am French and I live in Paris. I teach technology in middle school. I would like improve my abilities to use Sketchup. The trouble is I am not very good at English, espacially at "technical English". So I would like to participate at french forum. I think I chekboxed in French forum, but it looks that it does'nt work...
                                      Thank you for your answer.
                                      Alexus

                                        Do you teach SketchUp? πŸ˜„

                                        Your usergroup settings seem to work and you are in the French usergroup. You should be able to see and post in the French forum now.

                                          Thank you for your answer.
                                          I got this message "Congratulations,
                                          You have been added to the "FranΓ§ais" group on "SketchUcation Community

                                          ".
                                          But when I click I get "You are not authorised to view the member list or profiles".
                                          Does it means I have to wait a little bit or something is it wrong ?
                                          I answer your question : Yes I would like to teach sketchup seriously, but I have no lesson ready to use which is related with the national Technology program. Anyway, I have to learn much more about Sketchup.
                                          By the way, I am 51 and some of my pupils know Sketchup and they are much better than me...
                                          See you.
