Hi Everyone,
i am a weekend worker and i have recently started learning sketchup. i saw this side table and was trying to make a sketch . i am stuck with how to make the leg ( picture attached) . the leg is made from two pieces ,and this is how i want to proceed i-e by combining two individual components..shomehow i cannot recreate this on sketchup.
i have tried Push pull and resize tool but cant seem to achieve the desired result.
can anyone suggest which tool to use ?
regards
