      Hello all,
      I'm fairly new to SketchUp. I had a computer die which had a older version of SU on it. I had a ruby which would add up all the components in the model and out-put the result to a text document. You could then utilize that file however you wanted. In my case I was pricing the lumber on line to get a estimated cost of the project. I can't remember what it was called for the life of me. My question is, is there a ruby or script that will do this? The one I had before was designed for timber. All I needed to do was create the deck lumber and include it in the ruby.

      I'm working on a budget (Who ain't). My wife has a brain tumor and has always wanted a deck on our house. With the bills like they are, I have to be crafty in how I go about building it. We laugh about using SketchUp to see our dreams come true. If not in reality, in virtual reality! If I'm successful I will be able to attach a dollar amount to the deck then I can begin to budget the parts. Any idea's will be greatly appreciated! Thanx

        Hi Brian,

        Was it not CztlisnAndMaterials.rb by any chance? You can access it here:
        http://www.crai.archi.fr/RubyLibraryDepot/Ruby/em_edi_page.htm

        Then ERenderPlus Systems have come out with a brand new (and free!) parts list and reporting plugin - see discussion here: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=22382

        Also, I have added you to the Woodworkers usergroup so that you can see (and post in) the Woodworking forum a bit down on the index page. Those people may know these scripts better.

          Where is this woodworkers group?
          I just made a bunch of shelves for my kids preschool, all modeled in sketchup, with a hand-built materials list.

            It's down on the Borad index, under "Extensions..."
            You need to "join" the Woodworking usergroup however, to see it when logged in (I have added you now but here is the section in your user control panel where you join different, public usergroups)

              Try a kids food site. This is SketchUp discussions not ketchup.

                Hey,
                I am starting a home-based vegan preschool for about ten kids ages 2-5 and am looking for help coming up with a kid-friendly vegan meal plan. Meals will include breakfast lunch and a snack.
