Advice on metric dynamic component libraries
-
I am fairly experienced now at using sketchup to design and build my custom cabinetry. I can see the potential of dynamic components to help me work more efficiently. I am researching the resources out there and these 2 look good:

http://www.sketchkey.com/215900/What-is-it-all-aboutI could use some guidance though. I want cabinets designed for metric sizes, 18mm board etc.
I would also like to learn to make my own dynamic components.

Not sure if I made it clear, I'm looking for any relevant advice I can get!

My advice: try making some DC's, and ask questions when you get stuck on something for too long. Ask specific questions.
SketchUp's DC Docs are OK, and this forum has many models addressing solutions to common problems people have.

And a general advice/warning: Keep "Display units format" turned On in Window menu>ModelInfo>Units when using metric units in DCs. Otherwise you will experience weird behaviour. I think it is rather a bug than a feature...
