Love SU but you need to spend $500 to print like a human in the 21st century!

Just pay the man.

Makes you wonder uh?

Great!
Would you share some info on your render process?

Printing in SU is worse then a DOS based system in the early 80's.
No reason for it!
All that to get a crisp print in 2012.

Wow! I feel like I'm about to be booked.
No way NYPD floor that clean though.

I am so sick & tired of jerks telling us what's wrong with the USA.
Clean your own houses!

Really like the sepia!

Thanks!
I missed that segment.
Will try to watch

My Meshlab can't imports 3DS

Printing in SU is like being on MSDOS in 1985

What format was the file imported in?

I think in the context 'locked instance' was meant rather than 'locked layer' - you can't lock a layer in SKP [you can in CAD] BUT you can 'lock' a SKP's groups and instances so that they can't be moves, deleted or changed until you 'unlock' them...

Funny! I have done many security layouts for jails and the one architect never doing a jail before, had skylights over the cells. Real glass, no bars, skylights.
He cut pasted from a motel project.
Cut & Paste is a problem no one mentioned. I see many "Boiler plate cut-outs" drawing not even related to the project on drawings.

Glad I found this. Thanks

I fear all these skills will be lost in the not too distant future.

Nice work!

Printing in SU reminds of printing with AutoCad DOS in the 80's.

Thanks Fred. Nice & clean

With all due repect to those real plugin authors, someone needs to correct author of this plugin.
Some how I'm listed and given credit.
I just posted it.

Bonzai hasn't improved their product in years. No updates

Bonzai3d is also very powerful, and I've hear the term bandied about in regards to it as well... but I'm old school. I still have (and use) a drafting table, compass, french curves, t-square, triangles, templates, drafting pencil/leads and technical pens -- as far as I have been able to observe SketchUp is far and away more accurate than my traditional drafting tools (not that I do much drafting per se).

So I wonder if this is splitting hairs somehow -- unless they are referring to machining tolerances?

Best,
Jason.
