    • Bending something in SketchUp

      Hi there. I've downloaded the trail version of SketchUp, and I'm not sure how to bend objects around curves. What I'm trying to design right now is just a simple thin (1.5mm) piece of plastic that gets bent (kind of like a really deep, or highly extruded, 3-dimensional "U"). How do I do this with Sketch up? I've easily been able to build the shape that I want bent easy enough (not quite a rectangle), but I'm just not sure how to bend it.

      I'm hoping I can just bend it using circles, because I think push/pulling the shapes from another axis might be a bit time consuming.

      Hopefully someone can help.
