      Hi,

      I am looking for these two models in the warehouse and can't find anything that is alike.

      Does anyone have a "double ended christmas tree fastener" and "ball latch fastener" model?

        Could you post photos of what you're looking for? Googling the two seem to bring up a wide variety of things.

        Looks like you can get both 2d and 3d files for the double-ended Christmas tree from the wibsite.

            I see. Those should be pretty basic. Have you tried drawing them yourself? Are these to be shown in context in drawings of cabinets? If so, they won''t need much detail.

              I have tried to drew the fittings myself.But am just a beginner in sketchup and was wondering whether the fittings existed that could save me some time. They are for use with small shelves that will be "clipped" together to make a bigger furniture.
              As soon as I draw the model, I will post the idea

                Please remember that you are making a 'model'.
                It is not a true representation of the real-world.
                To do this you would need to model every atom.
                Only model as much as you need to convey your concept/intentions.
                For example, a simple peg/cylinder might do for this 'christmas-tree' - what benefit do you or the recipient of your information get from you spending considerable time and effort modeling every last 'sprig' that will never be seen when it is all assembled anyway ??

                Please 'think' before you 'do'.

                    Do they have those models in SketchUp or are you just offering a place to search?

                          Hi all Thanks for your answers. A plan needs to be detailed. For the 3D model for sure details are not needed, but for the woodworker he needs detailed plan.I'll just do the model with a stud.

                            Of course a plan needs to be detailed but the woodworker won't be making these parts. If they are at least recognizable and you specify them in the materials list and identify them with labels, the woodworker will have more than enough information.

                            I draw lots of plans and always have to include hardware but there's never been a case where I had to have fine detail drawn on that hardware.
