Why not just use the sketchup forum on their web site? Cheers, -- Brad in FL - In Dog I trust... everything else is questionable |

Brad, that would work but I’m talking about specifics on woodworking, design and joinery. Judging from the lack of response though I guess others don’t feel the same way. Thanks for the input! -- So much to learn....so little time..... |

I generally post my sketchup questions to the “Designing Woodworking Projects’ forum. My sketchup questions come in bursts, when I am beginning the design for a new project, then fade until the next one, usually a couple of months apart. -- "Man is the only animal which devours his own, for I can apply no milder term to the general prey of the rich on the poor." ~Thomas Jefferson |

I thought it would be nice to have. I know there a lot of lj’s that want to learn. -- Because I'm gone, that's why! |

I think it would be great to have a Sketchup forum. I don’t use the program but I’ve seen some awesome renderings coming out of it. I’ve got an architect friend up in Maryland that uses the free version and he does some really nice drawings in it and has never had any complaints from his clients. I just don’t have time to spend any time with it but I do enjoy seeing what you jocks come up with in it. The forum administrator should be able to add the forum without any problems and help our community grow. -- Bruce Free Plans https://traditionalwoodworking.org |

I’d participate. Like Charles, my Sketchup questions come in bursts and then slow down as I practice and use the new knowledge. I’ve been able to figure out how to do almost anything I can imagine. as far as woodworking projects, but would love to learn how to do those things quicker and easier. -- https://www.jtplaneworks.com - In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice.

I just made a model of a bowl with the follow me tool. It was a triumph for me! -- "Man is the only animal which devours his own, for I can apply no milder term to the general prey of the rich on the poor." ~Thomas Jefferson |

Count me in. I use it at the beginning of each project. I woke last night and came up with a joinery idea to simplify my current project. Tried it out in Sketchup this morning and realized it wouldn’t work. Saved a bunch of Baltic birch -- You can't always get what you want.

I could certainly be a contributor but any questions I have would be pretty advanced. At the moment, I’m working with dynamic components. Fun and extremely useful but only for those with the pro version. -- See my work at http://altaredesign.com |
