        Hello all just thought I would quit lurking and introduce myself. My name is Cory I am from northwest Pennsylvania. I work for my father at Barens Inc we sell pressure washers, parts & accessories all wholesale, all over world.
        I have been here since I turned 16 and am now 31, I started at the bottom scrubbing toilets and sweeping floors, pulling orders packing orders, manufacturing, accnts payable accnts receiving.
        We have a few in house brands that we have manufactured in china. I am now learning SketchUP to design some of our parts & accessories. Pressure Washer Frames, Hose Reels, High Pressure fittings & swivels. And whatever else the boss wants designed.
        The ultimate goal is to be able to send a technical drawing/blueprint to our manufacturer in china and them be able to build from it.
        I would say I am making good progress learning this cool little program, I have been playing with it for only 6-7 weeks so far and have learned a bunch from this great site you all have here. And would like to thank you all for the info you have all provided so far and for the help I am sure will be needed in the future.
        It amazes me how much better you all have made the vanilla sketchup with your plugins and ruby scripts.
        I am also going to be learning autocad in time because I am not sure which will be better for our needs. But I will be focusing on sketchup for now.
        Thanks again & nice to meet you all.

                Hi all...noob here. I'm a remodeler in CT looking to learn as much as possible quickly on SketchUp. Looks like a great program and I'll be eventually designing additions, built-ins, basements, etc with this tool to help increase the professionalism of my company and hopefully make a few extra $$ and close deals. The forum looks like a nice resource for this pursuit and I look forward to be a contributing member some day.

                No questions yet but I'm sure I'll be full of them in the upcoming weeks.

                  I am an ex-graphics artist, now master electrician specializing in overseas construction at american embassies and have used SU on more than one building remodeling project, at work and at home. I have been using the free version of SU, but I didn't make much progress until I worked my way through a few tutorials. Now, I build all my projects in SketchUp before I start the real thing. One thing I know for sure is that it would be easier to build models if I knew more shortcuts and tools. I got here following a link to Curviloft. I can see now that there is a whole lot more to SketchUp, especially with plug-ins. Thanks for the Forum!

                      😒 Ok hey guys, so I am new to SketchUP, I hope someone is awake to help me, I am from South Africa. My name is Anne-Marie and I am busy drawing a house, eventually I will have to draw a whole factory, now I am panicked because I had the SU Podium as a free plugin, now that was a year ago, it has expired... Is there a plugin I can download that is user friendly, and foolproof?? 😳

                      Great to see so many people here!!!

                              Hi, I'm Theo from Oss and I joined the forum to download the bezierspline plugin. About 5 years ago I made a 3d model of a boat and now I have no idea how I made the curvy lines on the boat back then. Hopefully I can come to the same result with the plugin.

                                    Welcome, Dylan. After a couple years you may "still" have even more questions. It seems there is always someone here who can answer them .

                                        Hello,
                                        I am French and I live in Paris. I teach technology in middle school. I would like improve my abilities to use Sketchup. The trouble is I am not very good at English, espacially at "technical English". So I would like to participate at french forum. I think I chekboxed in French forum, but it looks that it does'nt work...
                                        Thank you for your answer.
                                        Alexus

                                          Hi Alexus and welcome!

                                          Do you teach SketchUp? 😄

                                          Your usergroup settings seem to work and you are in the French usergroup. You should be able to see and post in the French forum now.

                                          Beware of Pilou! 😄

                                            Thank you for your answer.
                                            I got this message "Congratulations,
                                            You have been added to the "Français" group on "SketchUcation Community

                                            ".
                                            But when I click I get "You are not authorised to view the member list or profiles".
                                            Does it means I have to wait a little bit or something is it wrong ?
                                            I answer your question : Yes I would like to teach sketchup seriously, but I have no lesson ready to use which is related with the national Technology program. Anyway, I have to learn much more about Sketchup.
                                            By the way, I am 51 and some of my pupils know Sketchup and they are much better than me...
                                            See you.
                                            Alexus
