[Tutorial > Modeling] How a Pro Builds a House in SU pt 2
-
Very good tutorial - I'm very new to SU, so please excuse this question, but i got lost in step 4 - how can i extrude another face on top of the door volume? tried drawing a new face on top of the door, but i always pull the original volume.
thx a lot
-
Hi M(arc?),
Try to hit the Ctr key first to create a new face while using the Push/Pull tool (if I understand your question well)
-
thx a lot - that's it.

That's what? The "Marc" or the Ctrl!Push/Pull?
-
is part 1 of "how a pro....a house in su" still available?
-
-
thanks for the link. I am a newby and hope this will help me get starting. What's bothering me most is the stickiness of SU, being used to proframs like Vectorworks and Autocad.

Tut is great.but i am a beginer.How to trace in sketchup?
-
Just grab the pencil tool and start drawing on the surface of the image.
Try to align your image as close to the axes as possible so that you can make use of axis inference rather than fight with it. -
Good morning all.
I've searched, but cannot seem to find the third part of this great tutorial. Any help would be appreciated.

there isnt a third part yet, fingers crossed it will be coming soon.
-
Any progress on Part 3? I learned so much from Parts 1 & 2!
-
So...... all we need now for Part 4
is a set of similar simple turtorials that explain how to use (autocad, progecad - insert your cad program of choice) to come up with the constuction documents from our beautiful and fun to create Sketchup models. -
I work for a realestate company and we are trying to learn how to better use sketchup to create floorplans. I see that you are rather knowledgable about the program and was wondering if you having any advice. I have no problem with making the outline but am unaware about line thickness for the scale of the wall. Also was wondering if i could skan my graph paper and draw over it. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

-
go to sketchup
go to "window" at the top
open "styles"
select the "edit tab"
click the "wire frame" symbol
"profiles" controls line size.

Hey Kris,
Thanks for these neat tutorials. I've only glanced so far, but they look very useful.
Are you going to get to #3 at some point, roofs and foundations, as you seemed to imply before? Or did I miss something?
