Hi,

I am stuck at the intersect part.
When I try to interact is says:

"one or more of the selected objects is either not a solid or is locked"

Here's what I got for the first two steps.
Am I doing it right?

Thanks man really appreciate it.
Will give it a try.

Edit: For step 1: I draw the profile, then draw a circle (24s) with the polygon tool correct?
For step 5: How do I lap the pipes around (in a circle)?

Thanks. Sorry very new to this.

^ That looks nice, how'd you do it?

Yeah I'm trying to figure out how to make the base.

Hi,

Not here if this is the right section to ask, but how would I be able to make this coffee table?

Which tools would I need (any plugins)?

Also how can I draw around a circle?
Thanks.

Thanks.
B U T... is it now fixed ?

Oh sorry, yes it is.
However I can't seem to get my twilight demo download to work, but I guess that's another topic.

Thanks.

^ Hi Gerrit,

Sorry but its not there, which is the problem.

Sorry about that I should of worded it better.

The "Sandbox" plugin was never there in my Sketchup until I got the scf manager downloaded and working.
With scf manager, "sandbox" magically appeared in my tools menu.
I closed the scf manager toolbar and after a restart of Sketchup, I can't seem to find the scf manager toolbar and sandbox under the tools menu.

Also in my preferences> extensions is completely blank as you can see in the first image I provided in the first post

Hope that makes sense.

Thanks for the reply,

How come I don't have the option of installing rb files?
There something in my plugin folder called su.sandbox.rb

you do have the option.. those are inside the .rbz..

change the extension name of .rbz to .zip on one of those files then unzip it.. it's just a compressed file contain ruby scripts and sometimes images etc..

the .rbz files just save you the manual trip to your plugins folder as well as not requiring a sketchup restart as you need to do with manual installs.. (and the plugin i linked to.. the scf manager.. makes the process even easier)

Thanks
I got the scf manager to work through your method.
With the scf manager, I was able to see my other plugins like "sandbox tool" etc.
However, after I restart Sketchup everything is gone.
What to do?

That might just be the problem. Sorry, but how do I allow full permission for plugin folder?

The rb file is in the folder.
But it's not showing up in the "install extension window"

Thanks for the reply,

Also I tried installing that rbz file above.
But Sketchup closes with a error after I press ok

Hi, I fairly new to Sketchup and have just recently downloaded it.
Apparently, I can't figure out how to get the plugin tab to show up.
When I go to Windows -> Preference -> Extensions (its blank)
I tried the installing extensions button but it only has the option of rbz files (what are those exactly)?

Here are two pictures to illustrate my problem.
Please help. Thanks

Thanks, what are some good tutorials for learning sketchup to do interior design projects?
Mostly construction and presentation documents (floorplan, elevations, etc)
It definitely seem easier to do them on revit, but I am not certain.
So far I'm finished watching "Sketchup 8 Essentials" on lynda.com
Planning to watch some rendering tutorials next maybe, but then again there is a bunch of different programs.

My main concern for my projects though is finding the components I want.

Hi! Interior design student here. Mostly work in Revit, but recently started to learn Sketchup through video tutorials for the past week. I been searching different resources to built up my design library (material, texture, etc)

So thank you for the scrapbook resource! Will definitely be useful for my future projects.
