A hook on a pulley for some sort of crane or something. Based on dimensions given in an old, undated book from Spain of technical drawing exercises.

This is a heel strap for a wheelchair to prevent the user's feet from sliding off the foot plate. It's designed to install easily with no tools required except scissors to trim the strap to length. The clips with snap on covers are 3D printed to fit off the shelf polyurethane toothed belting.

From the SketchUp model.

Partially assembled.

Temporarily installed on a chair. Ignore the dog hair.

Combined a Vray render with an AO export direct from SU24.

Experimenting with creating a vintage illustration style for my SketchUp models. The flywheel is based on dimensioned drawings in a textbook from 1897.

This one is called Lady Stephanie. I don't know who the real Lady Stephanie was but if she was anything like this engine, I'm guessing she was kind of ornery and hard to please.

After putting her aside I did another engine today. This is a a little crankless engine.

From an old book. SketchUp and Paint DotNet.

A model of what is probably the first micrometer ever made. It's dated England about 1776 and attributed to James Watt although evidence shows it likely wasn't made by him.

A larger version of this image is available here.

All the screws are made and holes threaded. 28 component definitions, all solids.

Funny guys!

And here's another one. A little 4-cylinder oscillating engine. As usual, all base level components are solids.

This is from a model I initially made 11 years ago for shop drawings. I pulled it out recently to do a bit of refining in SU2025.

Ah ... So the file needs to be saved before using the extension. Makes sense.

This is very cool Fredo!

I've installed it and tried using it with some 3D Text as you did. When I click to finalize I get an error. Here's the TXT file generated by the extension. I did update LibFredo6 before installing FredoBend and I did a restart of SketchUp.

Due to differences in the extensions, there are some times when Round Corner works better than FredoCorner.

@pep75 I just installed it in SU2026 and gave it a try. It seems to do what it says on the tin. The back face color is green.

I want AI to mow the lawn, shovel the snow, do the laundry and the dishes. Leave the creative stuff to humans.

@Mikulassladek said in SCFLicense: Extension Licensing on Sketchucation:

Do I have to pay for it or is it stilll free

FWIW, FredoCorner has required a paid license since 2021.

If you never purchased a license for it the license couldn't have been removed.

@Joeyinsully Sketch Physics hasn't been updated in over ten years. It hasn't worked in newer versions of SketchUp for years so it's not surprising that it doesn't work in SketchUp 2026.

@tuna1957 thankee sir.

@wpns that looks similar to an issue related to certain Mac GPUs in which dimensions were inverted with older versions of SketchUp. In that case it was found that if a fix was to come it had to come from Apple. I don't know if it ever did.

Effectively the Mac OS has evolved out from under that old version of SketchUp. As long as you continue with SketchUp 2017 you'll probably have to live with weird stuff. Many users have reported repeated crashes and other unwanted behaviors with old versions of SketchUp. My guess is it won't get better.

Thank you!
