      Has anyone made some interesting animations they'd like to share? Is it possible to make animations, as far as moving parts, etc?

      this is as close as I can get with a trail plug-in:

        Animations are possible using scenes for example http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=ab38653ca93f5ea5b2b03abc22b5aaa4
        or use SketchyPhysics.

          thanks for the link...

          i'm hoping to really try some more animation techniques later on...

          i was surfing through the animation section here and was very impressed with what I saw.

                yeah... i ended up reading the basic one and really like the whole layers thing.. i never thought of that 😲

                here are some animations I've done with some plug-ins... but I really like to try to "animate" on my own without plug-in assistance.

                very short animation done with layer technique:

                  Has anybody tried to make animations with SU Animate. It seems interesting.

                    yes I have, there is a model of mine that used the SU Animate feature to show red arrows going through a smoke detection system. It's just a fancy add-on that creates "animations" faster than doing it manually.

                    Here is the work I did with the SU Animate:
                    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXg9VWmQcG8

                    It uses some of the very basic animation techniques shown on this very forum. Using the same principles I created this very short animation of a fire truck pulling out of a station... the SU Animation program is nice, but you should really save yourself the money and just do it manually.

                    My fire truck short:
