I thought this was the newbie area.

Thanks for the help, I managed to get the circle to wrap to the cylinder now i just need to work out how to pull it through as currently the circle wants to split, with one half going in one direction and the other in the opposite direction.

There's also a Tools on Surface ruby script that will allow you to draw/offset as usual...but on curved surfaces.

What do you mean by intersecting?

Whats surface ruby script?

Hi,Im new to using sketchup and I plan to use it to design new parts for my motorbike.

My current issue is that I have a cylinder and I want to put a hole through it from one side to the other to show where I want to drill a hole in it, But when I put the circle on the side to create a drill hole the circle just sits on the top and not how I thought which would be wrapped around the cylinder, How do I put a hole through it?
