[Plugin] Wood working rubys Update

bluecollar

Nice to see guys working on making su an even better furniture design tool, keep it up.By the way if are into furniture design and arent using fredoscale plugin take the time to install it and play with .Its saves me hours everyday and never fails to amaze me when i use it. Resizing doors , drawers, carcases complete cabinets- instantly-parametrically(just type in the new overall dimension)and then being able to instantly generate cut lists takes much of the drudgery out of shopdrawing and costing.

Attached is a zip file that is an update to the woodwrk.rb. It now includes ktkoh mortise tenon ruby. In the directory woodwrk2, is a readme.txt. One must copy the runwoodwrk.rb into the plugins directory. This file can be edited to delete out any ruby's that you don't want etc.

Thanks for this nice update guys.You make design works much easier. I think skabinet plug in would be as powerful as this also which many waited for the release. I hope its a free one.

I cannot get the plugins to work, I installed the directory woodwrk2 to the plugins directory, and copied the runwoodwrk.rb file to the plugin directory but nothing shows up.

One thing that does concern me, the runwoodwrk.rb states that sketchup.rb is required, I don't have that .rb in my plugin directory, but no errors are thrown either.

I used to have this plugin but deleted it because it doesn't really work for me with my work flow. Have you checked under window>Preferences>Extensions to see if there's a box that needs to be checked?

As to sketchup.rb, it is in the Tools directory not in Plugins so you do have it.

Have you seen the Wudworx plugins for both mortise and tenon joinery as well as dovetails?

How do I use the drill script to put a hole exactly where I want it. I typically use the guidelines to locate the
Center but the script gives me an invalid point error.

Optimization of the plates that make up the dimensions of furniture panels, could you make a plugin?

Create board and resize board wont work for me.

I had the original version from a different post, and they worked fine, but had issues with the DADO.

Now dado works fine but create and resize board dont work. Any ideas why?

Thanks

Was there ever an answer to this?

Hi There,

Just installed this in Sketchup 2015 and can't seem to get to work. Followed the instructions below

Delete woodwrk.rb (if you have it) from Plugins folder.
Copy woodwrk2 folder into your Plugins folder
Copy runwoodwrk.rb in woodwrk2 folder into Plugins folder.
Edit runwoodwrk.rb to delete or comment out those portions that you don't want.

One thing I did notice is the it plug in is not showing up in Preferences -> Extensions

Has anyone had luck with this one in 2015 ?

Thanks

AMIII

Does not seem to work for me. In SU 2016 I did put the plugin under USER application Data, since I understand this is where the plugins are located now. The dialog box opens i enter all the specs but no component is drawn.
