Hi Folks,
I've been playing about with Sketchup on and off for a few years now, however I've just been presented with a small problem where I wanted to reset the axis on an irregular shaped component.
The best way I've found of doing that is by using one of Thomthom's plug-in's, and the only way of getting the plug-in seems to be to register, and so here I am ...

... and because I am here now, I figured that the polite thing is to say hi ...

There's no "dumb question". Just have a look at our "duh (aka "doh") topic". Where all of the (so called) "experienced" users also confess what they did not know about SketchUp. I am sure it is going to be revealing for you, too...

Your banner proclaims that this is a friendly place, so I'd be rude to act otherwise ...

OK, you got me ...

The standard reply to that comment is that there are only dumb answers.
Right: Now that we've got that sorted, I'll try my best to search the FAQ before I ask questions, but think even more carefully about posting replies ...
