          Other way to do it is to make the pile as a single object. Here is my quick illustration:

          I just grabbed woodpile picture and bark picture from the web and went from there.

                Hi Mannie -

                Thought you might like to see a really good axe and wood scene created by Urgen - his post from March 20, '08

                  That is a good scene yes. But i don't like using stuff that others made unless i get permission that is. I'm making free stuff for geek at play just to learn how this works πŸ˜‰

                    I made one for you, it's a little poly expensive as I used some plugins to shape the handle and head.
                    The .skp has no textures, I will post with textures if you want but the texture are pretty kb heavy.

                        I think you're so used to converting in and out of any filetype imaginable Solo that you forgot that .vob is pretty useless outside of Vue πŸ˜„ Got it in something like say, .skp?

                              Guess it is allmost time to call it done. It could use more items in the shed but since i catch a nasty bug i'm not that patient and creative to come up with anything else to put there. I was going to try to make some plaster bags to put on the shelve but i guess people that want to use it can use that wharf clutter from cornucopia πŸ˜‰. The lantern i did of a tutorial on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6S2CRbIjqlM

                              This is what i have in the shed part so far, axe is solo's axe by the way. just like to know what you all think of it so far for a newbie πŸ˜‰

                                Well, not really a plastic bag but with the scale tool you may be able to tweak it a bit:

                                  No not plastic bag, but plaster, or cement if you like πŸ˜‰. Like these bags http://www.howibuiltmyownpool.com/images/bbq-cement-large.JPG

                                      From Contours Tool? I don't have one of thoseβ€” is it a Ruby?

                                      Your toolbar is much fuller than mine (v.7 Mac), and Help does not list anything for Contours. Could it have another name?

                                        It should be there - except you don'topen Preferences from the Window but from the Sketchup menu.
