    • RE: $Construction$

      It is created in layers as another layer. I think maybe you are right it is a plugin. It might be construction plus or something else http://www.srww.com/blog/?p=1761 I won't worry about it now.

    • Printing the Drawings

      I have a toy car I have designed and I want to give the plans away free in pdf. I printed each part of the car on a separate page from scenes using Sketchup printing to pdf. That gave me 17 pages in total which is fine. I end up with a file about 1mb which is too big for my needs.

      I then used Word to assemble the drawings using screen dumps of the drawings and Photoshop and got a much better sized file but the quality is not what I want. How can I produce a file like the pdf attached but better? What software can I use? I can't afford Sketchup Pro just yet. Also, about three of the drawings are full size patterns and this makes it harder for me. Sorry if this has been asked before but I am new and searches failed. Quite frankly I don't know what to search for.

    • Car with Boat Tail

      I am having trouble drawing the boat tail on the car (see picture). It curves in more than one direction. Could I please have some pointers on how I might go about it?

    • RE: Model T Ford Cabin

      Thank you for taking the time to do the drawing. I tried to follow what you did but I got stuck. Could you perhaps write a brief description of what you did and then I might fill in the gaps and get the job done.

    • Model T Ford Cabin

      I am going to build a wooden toy Model T Ford for our woodworking club's toy drive. I want to draw it first so I get to know the model well before cutting any wood. I am having trouble drawing the cabin. It has an angled cabin roof of 10 degrees with rounding in the inside corners. Basically the push/pull is across more than one direction and I can't get it to work. It's hard to explain but here is a picture of the toy that someone else has built:

      How do I go about drawing the cabin?
