OK, found the problem, not auto correction etc. Sketchup was teleporting the geometry for some reason not known to me. Fingers crossed this is a transient event. Thanks for the tips, Box. Appreciated.

Ah. I see it now. Thanks.

The dreaded ear worm, mine goes to the tune of hissing static for variety or something.

@mike amos said: Cheers mate, if it gets off the floor this time, I'm using carriage bolts after.

Thanks mate, not sure about the mirror.

That looks great!

@mike amos said: This has been resolved. How did you fix it ? Letting others know can be helpful if they have similar issues...

Thanks folks, I am trying to rebuild my parts and texture collections. These two sites are brilliant. Something I have found useful is fbx files, a way to get 3ds.max files into Sketchup via Blender OR the universal import plugin found here on Sketchucation. https://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=71951&hilit=universal+importer or in the store. https://3dsky.org/ https://cgmood.com/

Thanks folks, she has been missed.

@ntxdave said: My next issue will be the licensing of my Fredo6 plugins. I had received a set of emails with the license info but my laptop had died and I could only access it on my iPad since my laptop had died. Just another challenge when I do get a new machine. When you have your new machine your emails should be available on it, if you set it up to receive them. Then just add the license files to an appropriate folder and access them from there. Or download them to your ipad and email them to yourself when you need them, or pop them into an icloud location, I could go on.

Thanks mate.

I do agree but, not every image has going to be perfect and as a hobby renderer it is important not to beat yourself up too hard. Sometimes it just does not happen and you can be happy with that. If you are being paid that is something else.

Ta mate, getting a few more pointers today so movement is possible.

Thanks mate, something else I have thought about is textured glass with light elements (Coloured obs) and used as a moveable room break perhaps.

Thanks mate, like Bryan and others here I am running a very old pc and memory issues are cropping up.

Thanks folks, getting closer to the correct geometry for the centre cab. I guess number 20 is the charm.

Thanks folks, much appreciated.

Got to love a good asset site, and I do mate.

Thanks Bryan.
