Title: Any good tutorials for Google SketchUp?
Post by: danny_galaga on October 31, 2019, 06:50:29 pm: Going to spend all day improving my skills on SketchUp. Need to start virtually from the beginning. Any good tutes people know if? In particular engineering (im using it for 3d printer designs) rather than architecture although I know it's mostly the same skill set.
