Piping plugin for Mac
-
Does anyone know of a piping plugin for mac? I need something that does pvc, flanged pipe etc. I have seen the 3dskeng ruby, but its only available on windows. Only other thing that looks decent is the engineering tool box, which is rather limited.
Just using the follow me tool gets very frustrating when doing intricate piping layouts. Anyone have suggestions? I can't be the only with this problem.

What are the 3skeng system requirements?
3skeng products designed for Trimble SketchUp require a running SketchUp installation on your computer. Every system that runs with Trimble SketchUp 6, 7 or 8 in standard or Pro release can handle the 3skeng plug-ins.bottom of their page:

Does 3skeng run on Mac OS/X computers?
No, the interest in a first release for Mac/OS X systems was quite low. For the near future we have no plans to develop a Mac OS/X release. -
I got this working on mac at one point, then the codebase incorporated my tweaks so it should work
handy if you read Russian, or want to help on the English translation...

Beside the fact I cannot speak russian, metric is not terribly useful in this country either...in less your a chemist.
I would pay real money for a piping program that works. Amazes me nothing has been developed for this. Sketchup has some great features, but it really sucks for anything mechanical. They should develop this if the want to keep beating down autocad.
