Frederick posted a detailed description here which I also merged with the original post and "spread" all over the forums.

Nevermind, sorry. I found some on the 3D warehouse.

Thanks Ron, Now that works, wonderful, I am a happy sketch up man....

RG 😄 😄 😄

perhaps we should ask them if they are still going to do it for SU and when they plan to release it.

Moved to Requests.

You can search the Components here or search the 3D warehouse. Otherwise ask for specific furniture.
There are tons of places to look.

I have some models of C & Z cold rolled members based on the dimensions from Garco Metal Buildings if you'd like them. Mostly made up of C8's 10's & 12's by varying thicknesses. Drop a direct mail if you'd like them sent.

It's a great website. Once I found it, I never had to go hunting again! A lot of excellent high-res textures license free for commercial use.
(didn't realize how much I sound like an infomercial. lol)

Thanks You

I've seen some pre-built components like these in your photo (nice porch!), but you'll have to search each keyword here, and over in the old forum's archives. Best, Tom.

Can't wait to see your finished model!

Thanks, everyone. Some great ideas. My image is coming along nicely, but still without stars!

These suggestions should help.

thanks... I'll try that out...

I was thinking the same thing... all the tools are there... just give us a button to control it. and viola.

Have you experimented with Scenes? I use them to do what you describe.
