excellent... I'll host anything if needed... I can make an open FTP server for us to dump in and then we'll review them for final changes...
this will be awesome... I can't wait to see Column week or Balustrade week...
I know this is stretching but it could even break into teams... or threads for each group of components
I would rather work together in a concerted effort with other pros to build a component database of great units... I would rather keep them here, and build a download with all of the "approved" components...
I would also like direction, where as a group we did kitchens one week the next week someother grouping, where we all brought submissions.....
FFT
tint the back of the glass to give that same effect of the photo... mho
that is one beautiful component... what a great job... the neck and crown are just perfect... now use that sound script and have it play in sketchup
I have this folder called c:/
I keep it all in there. 
yes we're in the running to premiere the Simpson's movie... I live in Springfield...
well I have the space and the bandwidth... and you have the visitors... so shall we?
Firkins,
try again...
click on the link
if page cannot be displayed comes up, go to Tools>Internet Options> (Advanced Tab)
Scroll Down, ensure that "Use Passive FTP" is checkmarked
now click the link again, should open FTP and ask for username and password.
(ensure that you don't copy and paste user name, sometime the "Space" behind the text gets copied and it will not let you in.)
I checked it today and it works...
Coen,
no worries, if someone puts something bad in it, I will know and I will have their IP and I will delete it... I have ran a few of these FTP's and haven't had any issues yet... besides we can let the evil doers of the world stop us from collaborating, can we?
so let's see some uploads... and downloads
ok I have created a ftp folder for our challenge
anyone can put there challenge files in here... and anyone can download the files here.
just upload your file into the corresponding week.
username: sketchup
password: sketchunation
I'll upload all that have been given so far...
much less wicked... much more beautiful... you really captured that trunk.
I think Serengeti...
that is wicked... and huge...
I think it grows in India as well... there are some forms of the tree that grow huge tall trunks too
see here... http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=Baobab+tree&btnG=Search+Images&gbv=2
actually shaun they could just put in a flow limiter and reduce the amount of water allowed to come out... I think it's very chic...
sweet... has a sturdy old world feel to it
this room is going to get Busy Fast... maybe we should sub channels for different types of components?
thank RickW for the script, I've found it quite valuable too...
Curved Walls Using Flex-C and RickW’s "copy along a path" ruby
I'm here to help some of you designers with curved walls...
we will be using components made from a product called Flex-C track you can find out more about the product here... http://www.flexc.com/
we’ll also be using a ruby script provided by RickW can learn more about the script here http://forum.sketchup.com/showthread.php?t=41083
now that you have read about the script you can download the script and my Flex-C components here at my website...
http://www.aboveallhouseplans.com/Wood_Flex-C_Curved_Walls.zip
install them to your component directory with your other framing units...
Now you’re ready to start.
Step 1. insert one Flex-C unit into your model,
Step 2. draw an Arc a Curve or Bezier curve
Step 3. use the “copy along a path” tool, from the drop down menu under Plug-ins to set the Flex-C unit along the curve... (be sure to type in the length of the component from “hole to hole” for the spacing between the units along the path either 3-1/2" or 5-1/2" depending on if it's an interior wall or exterior.
Shazamm… you may have a few doubled up components or slightly offset extra units, but just delete them. now this isn't perfect but it goes along way in helping to building framing drawings for curved walls... you'll either need to edit the components after they are curved to delete some of the 2x4's but I'm sure it's less work than before...
so there you are and happy Curving....
