      Ref : help with creating 5 windows in sketch up.

      We have recently commandeered an amazing 130 year old victorian building in Devon, UK which we intend to return for community/education/artistic use. It had been left abandoned and we bid with developers who wanted to make it in to expensive private housing. This would have been a shame given it history. We are running on an almost nothing budget, doing all the work ourselves and have set ourselves up as a not-for-profit organisation.

      I have been tasked with creating a model so we can design the stage, kitchen and toilet areas. A good sketup up model would also help event organisers and charities reconfigure the hall for their use.

      As a sketch up beginner, I don't think I have done too badly and have modelled the shell of the building. The issue is windows. The windows are by far the most amazing feature of the building and I really want them in the model in their correct proportions. I'm getting the impression that I am able to do pretty much everything except the windows and I have decided to spin the wheel and ask for help. There are 7 windows (although there are two pairs) so 5 really, and two doors. I think someone with experience would be able to make them quite quickly as components.

      So whats the payback? We have no money, but really happy to mention you and give you free membership to the hall for life. You maybe 1000s of miles away but we would sure make you a VIP guest to any of our events of you were in the area.
