Thanks Pilou,but another very stupid question.........how do I explode the component?the only "explode" I can find wont let me do anything.

Hi,this probably a stupid question but I have tried but cant get anywhere.
Now picture this if you will.....I have made a house roof in a scale of 1:120 and made it a component(part of a complete house that I 3dprinted).
Now I scaled my model up to 1:64.As my printer bed isnt big enough for this size model I want to split roof into two halfs eg:two seperate components(so I can print two seperate halfs)
Is this possiable or do I have to redraw the whole model?Im going to have the same issue with the floors and walls.
Hope this makes sense.
Thanks for time in reading this.

Cheers for replys I will see what I come with.
Theres no plans as far as I can find so will just go on dimensions that I know off.
Thanks again

Hi There,Been a long time since my last vist(computer problems!)
I have done quite afew models with sketchup and had them 3dprinted.The tricky stuff I have to pay a designer to do for me.
I can do buildings,truck trailers etc with no trouble(took awhile tho )
But I would really like to learn how to do stuff like the cab on the truck in attachment,chassis and wheels etc are no problem.
I have "curviloft"and had a wee play and have managed to make a wall with thickness and curve on one side.Would this plugin be the best way to do all the curvy bits needed?
Any help I could get from you "amazing" sketchup experts would be very very helpful and greatly appreciated.

Hi there,
Im a very green newbie here but making good progress with sketchup(Heaps of fun).I thought I would be smart and download Roundcorner,after an hour or so I found the plugin folder thingy(I aint a commputer geek!!!)But cant get the program from there into sketchup.I know Ive either done something wrong or havent done something that I shouldve.
Sorry if its hard to understand but unsure of the commputer terminolgy(sp)cant even spell
Thanks for reading anyway.
Must say theres a hell of alot of very clever people on this forum,glad I stumbled on it.
Cheers
Stu
