Any good tutorials for Google SketchUp?
« 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.

I learned a lot from this place.  It’s free for 7 days then very expensive.  If you can dedicate the time you will learn a lot of good habits and great techniques.  Just be sure to cancel before they charge you:

Meh, spent an hour struggling to reconcile what I was reading their with what I was looking at in sketchup. I just realised I am using the web based version and that tute is for the downloaded version!

So this is the one I need:

I'm going to be pedantic and mention that Sketchup hasn't been owned by Google for several years now.

indeed. Does anyone know which paid up version gives me features like 'subtract solid'? Turns out the web based one isn't going to cut it...
