Hi Gaieus
Yep just a normal face with thickness but real thin 1.6mm sheet metal
As I said, sometimes its works and sometime not.. I guess its hard to push-pull a "hole"

Hi guys
I need some help with punching holes thru a face
any hints? is there a ruby tool to help
I seems a bit hit and miss some times

Andrew

to shell a solid by a thickness, like a bucket for example

Hi all
You know what would be good in sketchup...A shell command

Andrew

thanks all for the replies..i now have lots of ideas..

hi guys
can a line be drawn tangent to a circle or what is the best way to fillet two lines

attached file

BIKE RACK.skp

hi guys
i hope someone can help with this,
Have a look at the attached model -its a bike rack
How would I model a gusset (plate) in the apex of the triangle legs
so the horizonal bar can be welded to it
I know i could draw it and then move it into position but it be
done in-place ?

Andrew

thanks, i tried to change the default..not the in model one
Andrew

Hi guys
Cant the screen background be a different colour?
Andrew

I found an answer, if you use the weld.rb script then you can offset a open polyline

Andrew

thanks and yes that is how i did it..just wanted to know if there was a better way
thanks guys Andrew
