        Tutorial updated to show an inner ring to give the text an equal reveal.

            Great tutorial, Eric.
            Safely tucked into my tutorials library.
            Thanks

              That's nice. I had tried a variation on that, but your way works much better. I was trying to align the backs of the letters to a cylinder which was already in place.

                When in doubt: Intersect With Model.

                    Can or cannot?
                    Anyway, I don't know what's going wrong (on your end) - I can download and open it with no problem.

                    Gai...

                      Mass, welcome.

                      It opens fine for me as well. What version of SketchUp are you using?
