Boy you are good Justin. Thankyou. Ive made many great intricate landscapes and homes over the years with SU but everytime I watch your vids I find another example of why it takes me so long to make my models. I always have a deadline and am surrounded by pressing distractions so usually I just have to pick one or two new things to learn from you how to do differently for each new project. Thanks to you I can improve, albeit even in slow increments.

Thank you! Was looking for how to create intersecting bevelled edges. This worked at ~ 4:50 for others looking for the same.

I wish I had run across this video several years ago. I use some of the tools you demonstrated, but not near as efficiently. That's the problem with being a self taught user of Sketchup. I've drawn some pretty intricate renderings with Sketchup, but probably took 10 times longer to do it because I don't fully understand the application or methods of using these tools. You take the tediousness out of Sketchup. Thanks buddy.

this video packed with so much detail- I need to watch again and break it down piece by piece. Thank you!

Great video. Spheres always annoyed me, until I found out that you can't make spheres without holes in them unless the radius is at least 68mm (67.9mm). Eg. if you try making a smaller sphere, you'll get a sphere with a face that's not fully closed. I decided to try changing the radius until I found the point where the surface no longer has holes. If you need a smaller sphere, create a 100mm sphere, then use the scale tool to scale it down. -I'm still having trouble slicing small spheres without their faces getting messed up. Edit: Hint ... If things break, try drawing it oversize and scale it down. Sometimes I draw things in meters and scale down to millimeters (/1000), that usually helps - but some precision is definitely lost when scaling down, so don't expect perfection.

WOW! This was a super useful tut. The *Round Corner* extension offers features to rival a 3D polygon Modeler (if not a NURBS one). And, so _THAT's_ how you make a sphere and can Lathe a profile in SketchUp! I guess the latter also works with an Imported Profile, as a *DXF* from Illustrator? I messed with *Artisan* a long time ago, and it seemed to me that a dedicated 3D poly modeler like *Blender* or the easier *Hexagon* would be preferable if you intended to do much in that area. Finally, *Soap Bubble* looks really interesting if a bit complex. Thanks, Justin!

Hi! Great videos! I just have a specific question if you could help us. We design and build skate ramps and wooden skate bowls. We are looking a way to design a curved wooden skate bowl in either Sketchup/Fusion etc and then cut it out using CNC machine. Is there a way to design a 3D curved bowl and then take the curved surface and make it ("lay down") flat 2D surface to be able to cut the sections with a CNC machine? Almost like taking an orange and peeling the orange layers off and laying them flat? Just wondering if there is a program or Sketchup/ Fusion extension that could do this? Thank you for your time and expertise.
