The Top 5 list of...

[jasonh1234]

...your essential SketchUp add-ons.

Let's see your list of what YOU consider to be essential to you in your modeling.
Imagine you just installed SketchUp on a brand new computer.

Feel free to state why it's in your list or what it does. If it is a PC or Mac only item, don't forget to say which.

It can be a ruby script or a companion product like Podium or Kerkythea.

If you have trouble narrowing it down to a Top 5, then go ahead and make a Top 10 list.

This should make for an informative thread. Especially for newbies.

1. Make Faces Ruby Script
2. JS Extrude Ruby Script
3. Window Maker Ruby Script
4. Door Maker Ruby Script

Saving the best for last

5. Kerkythea!!!

These will probably be quite different from most of the more architectural ones, but here goes...

1)curve stitcher/skin (ruby)
2)hole (ruby)
3)joint push pull (ruby)
4)textures by cadmastr
5)podium

oh and
6) bezier spline (ruby), i prefer a really simple one which only lets you do 2 control points, none of this overly complicated messing around with more than 2 control points

I can think of only two items off-hand, and they aren't add-ons:

1. Masonry Designer by Acme Brick Co., for an endless variety of masonry textures.
2. FormFonts, for adding people, cars, and other entourage elements.
