Joint Push Pull Classic (Old version) - v2.2a - 26 Apr 17

It's an awkward shape to JPP...
I can't get a good result either
Here's an alternative method...
As it's a solid you can use Jim Foltz's 'shell' @12mm, then temporarily hide the top of the original outer-shell, PushPull the top of the new solid inner-shell up ~50mm so it will pierce the outer-shell's top, intersect both groups' geometry together, and then erase the unwanted parts in them, explode the two groups together and re-group as one, smooth it...

Hi TIG,

this worked quite well, actually! I had to redo it, as I had given you the inner shell and needed an outer shell but that was good practice, actually... :smile: And along the way I got a new plugin, I had not been aware of as of yet. So, what I wanted to say is: THANK YOU!!! :smile:

hey fredo

i've come across an instance where v1.6 is freezing sketchup and 1.5 handles it just fine.. i'm not sure if the problem is in something i'm doing wrong, something mac specific, or what.

i'll attach the .skp (v8).. the two faces i'm having problems with are the ones painted orange.
thanks

[edit -- removed file]

[and maybe someone else can try this with jpp v1.6 on windows (or mac to see if it's repeatable for them as well)]

 thank you very much

Indeed, I have just had to update JPP as I had freezing with a model. Many-manythanks, Fredo, for this excellent tool and the constant upgrades!

The JPP_Dir_17 folder is required?

I think not - as it contains nothing that's not already in the new 18 version ??
V18 works OK for me without v17...
