      Here's another one..... picked up an old corkscrew like this in a second hand store. Modeled as close as I was able to measure the darn thing.... not as easy as it sounds. Posting an SU pic and a kind of quickie render.
      Posting the model. If you post back a render put the "screw" into a little scene......... πŸ‘ .

          I am very impressed by your modeling skills!

          Did you used a specific SketchUp Extension to help you model?

          Good Work!

            Mike A. , Thank you sir and your most welcome. By and by a lot of the people I work with would argue your "gentleman and squire" comment. πŸ˜‰

            renderiza, Thank you, but you've heard the saying 'even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then" 😎 . As for the plug-ins I used, hope I remember them right.... Vertex Tools , RoundCorner , B.Z. Toolbar , and Fredoscale. πŸ‘

              I couldn't resist. The builder and my boss only see pure SketchUp output and no corkscrew... They may still think I don't have anything to do... 😎

                a great model and just like this in my kitchen drawer as well πŸ‘ πŸ˜„ thanks for sharing !!
                When my kids were little I played the "hands up" game with it - my kids pretended to shoot (with their fingers), I pulled down on the screw and this thing looked like one who makes "hands up" πŸ˜‰ stupid, isn't it? πŸ˜„ πŸ˜„

                a nice comment next to your equally beautiful render work πŸ‘ I almost expected, you could have animated the "hands up" thing πŸ˜„

                    Thank you HornOxx and thank you Tuna1957 for the detailed corkscrew. It works really well... The picture has replaced the dandelion as wallpaper so that I can now dream of drinking wine while working... πŸ˜‰

                        Thanks Mike.
                        Here's a little fall exercise and a quick and dirty rendering.
                        Most of the time I needed for the set and the render and video settings.
                        Dear children, please don't imitate this experiment in your parents' living room.... πŸ˜‰

                            Agreed, I want one of those tables, with glass that does not chip from dropped stuff. My old glass topped table had chips all over the place.

                              I couldn't resist making the corkscrew even more lively and deceitful. The high-resolution and perfectly rendered animation will eventually land on YouTube.

                                  I only wanted to show the "hands up" thing for HornOxx...

                                          Thank you Gentleman.
                                          The corkscrew was modelled by Tuna very well for an animation. πŸ‘
                                          The glass plate was a real challenge. I have learned a lot again.
