      I need to make some terrain, just a garden but I want to make it look more natural. Any tips or "How to's"?

        Use the native Sandbox tools

        • From Scratch

        • Smoove

        These should increase your knowledge and allow for great result using 'out of the box' methods before utilising any plugins.

        Download the free D'oh Book for SketchUp πŸ“–

            Apologies for the slow reply and thanks for the help.

            I'm using SU on a apple imac, I only seem to have the options - smoove, stamp, drape, add detail and flip edge. I don't have the from scratch option Rich talks about.

              The toolbar has all the buttons.

              In the menus the functions are split between the Draw and Tools menu,

                  on youtube - the sketchup show β™―13 is a good guide to the sandbox.
