      A student asked me about drawing a Fibonacci gauge. I'd never thought of drawing one before and was curious about the possibility of drawing one with very few measurements and no calculation. It was even easier than I thought.

                You could use something like this.

                        I was just showing the gauge I drew at the request of someone who was trying to figure out how to draw it. Apparently I didn't make that clear enough. It had nothing to do with drawing golden rectangles or sections in SketchUp. I wasn't asking for help. The video and plugin are interesting though.

                        Peter, you are correct about the Rectangle tool. The rectangle behind the gauge was drawn using that indication.
