      Hi all and welcome!

      @Dean: post your scene frustrations in a separate topic (so it does not get buried here). BTW you are talking about SU scenes in LO however your profile says you have SU Free. Is it the trial period?

        I'm trying out Layout on the free trial to see how I get on with it. Will search through the forums for tips. At the moment I'm trying to find a good method of getting floor plans and sections from my model in SU into Layout.
        Thanks

              Hello Everyone,

              I am a designer in a residential design/build firm that specializes in sustainable, high efficiency design. I am looking to increase my modelling skill through the use of plugins and working knowledge that I hope to find here. Thank you for having this website and forum. It looks like there are many skilled modellers here already.

                          Hi there, I'm Rino (you'd never have quessed ๐Ÿ˜„ )

                          I have worked for some 14 years as a VB.net programmer but got thoroughly sick of it.
                          When my boss started making noises about having to size down I was off and now I am doing paintless dent repair and reviving headlights, a bit of a change and I'm loving it!

                          I found sketchup looking for something to create 3d printing files, awesome program!
                          Very much new at it, and learning every day, I am starting to sort of make it do what I want ๐Ÿ˜‰

                          I imagine this is what's used to put the buildings on google maps and that is why this is now free so hopefully people will make more? Can I put my house on? ๐Ÿ˜„

                          Kind regards
                          Rino

                              Hello All,
                              New to Sketchup but enjoying it! Just wish I could do electronic circuits in 2D. Building parts and complete machines is amaising, especially since I am just using the free version.

                                Hello SketchUcation

                                Been using 2D CAD for space planning (mainly commercial offices) for too many years. This year I have started learning AutoCAD 3D but SketchUp seems more intuitive for 3D, faster (more fun too) and provide some great output - so I'm looking forward to start modelling soon.

                                Have the excellent "sketchup for dummies" to kickstart my journey.

                                Once I've got the hand of basic modelling will want to move onto rendering - but not sure of which book to go for "Rendering Sketchup (Danial Tal)" or "Architectural Design with Sketchup (Alexander Schreyer)", to take from Beginner to Intermediate level.

                                Appreciate help !!

                                      Hi Daria and welcome. Maybe this could be a start.

                                        Hello,
                                        I'm Bojo, and it's great for me to join the community. I'm an architect and a sketch up user for years and still look forward to explore more about SU capacity. Really want to learn more from all the masters here ๐Ÿ˜„ , maybe nearest target is about making a simple animation (I like Lumenrt but I guess my PC can't afford for that frustrated render)
                                        Good day guys!
                                        Bj

                                            Hello everyone. I'm Scott. I am in the mechanical drafting field. I mainly use solidworks and Inventor for that work, however when I need something quick I use Sketchup. It is also my goto program for any side modelling. One of the things I do is rendering of various sets used on game shows. A few models I've done can be viewed here.

                                            I came here because I wanted to get into programming and scripting and I'm sure you guys will teach me some tricks too.
