      Good Morning,

      Thank you for letting me in. I'm new to sketchup and have looked it over. I've not tried anything yet, I'm a Nuclear Technologist and spend most time between work and family. I do however enjoy woodworking. I have a shop in my garage with plans to expand some day. any way hello to all and maybe I'll learn something along the way.

        Welcome Fred!

        You'll find a whole bunch of fellow woodworkers here (unfortunately most of their posts are just being transferred to this board).

        Just browse around, have a look at the Tutorials subforums (they have all been transferred now) and enjoy yourself here!

          Well as a very novice woodworker I would be happy to hear any tips you might have.

          And by novice I mean the last time I built anything was about two years ago. But I am hoping to start something one of these days.

            Hey Gaieus!
            How about a woodworking sub-forum already!

                Greetings,
                I am a newbie and I am trying to use SU to design a 3D presentation for a small-town planning board. I am not a professional planner, however I am trying to show the board an alternative to an auto-centric perspective on our community's downtown district. The idea is to use SU and GE to zoom in from a mapview into the streetview from the perspective of a pedestrian arriving via transit rather than by automobile. Furthermore, I would like to show how a transit-oriented approach could spur more infill development by adding buildings as they may arise in the future.
                I am not sure if this can be accomplished without SU Pro and GE Pro, neither of which can I afford on a freelancers budget. However, if I can make a convincing enough presentation I may be able to entice the town into funding a more comprehensive 3D modeling effort as part of their Downtown Master Plan.
                Any suggestions?
