      What does "Make" mean? That one can use it without the export options such as dwg and dxg?

        Yes, Make is the free version of SketchUp. However every installation starts off with a pro trial period. After the pro period has run out, the next time you start SketchUp it will start as SketchUp make, and not pro.

          I used 8 for awhile and then it got corroded. I downloaded it again, installed it, and it only lasted for 4-6 hours. after that, it wouldn't open up at all.

            8 Pro didn't revert automatically to the free version. It's past history now, though.

              Thanks Dave R. But, will 13, 14, or 15 revert automatically to the free version?

                They are supposed to. Just get SU2015 if you are going to finally upgrade.

                Actually, I don't know if the older, non-supported versions will anymore.

                  OKay, good news for me so far. Will Sketchup Make (2014) free version allow my continual exporting of 3D models in the DAE file extension/format?

                    I don't believe so. I think DAE exports require the pro version.

                      I just checked and the Make 2015 version has these export options.

                          Hold that thought Dave, silly me checked a computer that I installed make on when I arrived here. Less than a month ago, so it's still running the trial, have to dig out the other one that I originally installed it on when it came out.

                            We were both wrong, but in different ways.
                            In 2014 and 2015 Make exports .dae
