hey Ron
its great collection.Thank you yaar!
-
Very generous!
-
Unbelivable. Thank you so MUCH I only use SU to draw my molding and Millwork designs...Thank you!!!!!
-
can i ask what for and how these are used in sketchup...
im still kinda new and just trying to get up to speed with sketchup....
-
use them with push/pull to build baseboards, frames ...
-
o i see now, how do i import them into sketchup, or do i use them as a reference to remake them in sketchup...
-
if you look inside the .zip files, they are already sketchup files. try it.
-
ok thanks heaps...
and thankyou for the moulds ron they should come in handy....
-
Thanks for the great moldings very useful. One question though. If I want to measure the radius of any of the moldings, how would I go about that. I have tried and cannot get a radii measurement. Thanks

woodtogo, since all of the edges of the profiles have been welded together, the curves are no longer arcs so there's no radii to measure. You could use the yellow Tape Measure tool and guidelines to work out the radius of the various curves if you need them. You could also trace the arc portions of the molding profile and create arcs you can dimension.
-
Ray, I use Chris Fullmer's Exploded Arc Centerpoint Finder plugin all the time. It works great.
Of course you would have to explode the arc so you can select two lines but then you could just weld them together again.http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=155504#p155504

Thank you Ron for this excellent library. Absolutely amazing

You have made me all happy with this, but now I have a question. If I find a profile that works perfectly in the remodel I'm doing, do I then need to take it to a place that does custom millwork and have new knives made? or did these all come from one place that I could go to and order moulding? I saw that Forrester was mentioned in the initial post. Does anyone know if the profiles came from the mouldings supplied by that company?
With many thanks,

He lives!

Wow, just this one thread has a few people that are missed around here.
rhankc - 300+ posts - hasn't posted in almost a year.
Juju - 1100+ posts - has not posted in nearly a year
PKast - over 100 posts, has only posted 2 times this year
Firkins - 70+ posts, has not posted for 2.5 years also.
I guess people sort of come and go. Perhaps they <shutter at the thought> have real lives outside of SketchUp?
Anyhow, it was good to see you around. I hope is well with work and with your spine - that is a generally useful thing to keep in good working order. -
You are welcome.
I am glad everyone can use them. All of the files do come from Forrester. -
Hello Chris. Yes time does fly. In the past 2.5 years I had a job change, 2 computer melt downs and spine surgery but I am back up and running now.
