Hi guys,

spent last few evenings designing wardrobe for my first child who arrives in July. I've a woodworker who'll build it but before i submit plan i'd like ye to take a look and offer opinion or even improvements. The lady boss ain't too happy with the depth of drawers but i think the baby will fit it there ok!!!!!

Baby's Wardrobe.skp

who's brave enough to model that?????????????????????????

Hi Guys,

I'm an intermediate user of SU and recently got Vray. I struggling to get to grips with it and finding Sketchup related tutorials for Vray is proving very hard.

Could you suggest sites for me to browse to learn using this plug-in?

I followed all the tutorials on the Vray Manual for Sketchup but feel I'm only touching iceberg tip

Any suggestions are welcome.....

Also i use sketchup for modeling aircraft parts and components for use in training apprentices to understand structure better so I'd like to use rendered pictures to add some extra pizazz to my presentations

Hi Guys,

Is there a free program that will record my screen actions so i could show tutorials etc?

welcome and good luck with sketchup

the guys here are super helpful and you'll rarely get stuck

Hi Guys,

I've recently captured my house from Google Earth and modeled it on SU7.The file is attached.

My question is how do i get the part i modeled to sit on the sloping site that i live on? Things like the fence, house and shed are ugly when i use the stamp tool. And when i try to smoove terrain it gets messy?

If i have to start again it's fine but I'd like to know if there's a video out there that can explain what I'm trying to achieve?

i'm completely alien to ruby so if your advice is walk away i'll take it!!

i've being struggling making screw threads that don't twist and was pointed to the above site. where i go from there is beyond me???????

Greetings,
I tried this post in the newbie section but it died a long death! So, here's my query, i want to make various thread types for screws and bolts of different diameters, pitch and leads. That is, 'V-Threads, Acme Threads, Buttress Threads' etc.
Is there a plugin that will make my life easier? I've tried 3d Warehouse for components but no luck?

Remus kindly supplied the following links to help understand what i'm trying to make
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acme_thread
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buttress_thread

thanks for the interest chris, but the following post answers your question.

Greetings,

I'm trying to create various thread types with SU7, v-thread, acme thread, buttress thread and round thread. Is there a plugin that can do this for me? I would also like to be able to change the lead on each of these threads if possible?
