About The Course - Beyond Basics
3D modeling has become a crucial part of the modern woodworker's skill set. SketchUp is an intuitive 3d modeling tool that is easy to work with and once you master the fundamentals, it allows you to design at the speed of thought. We are going to go beyond the basics and dive into modeling complex shapes. While extensions exist for making some shapes, there's incredible value in attaining the skill set required to generate the shapes from scratch, much like our craft of woodworking. Best of all, this SketchUp course focuses on the 100% FREE web-based version of SketchUp.
What is included in the course
• How to position and scale wood grain textures on your model
• Troubleshooting techniques to edit and repair the mesh that makes up your 3d model
• How to work with small geometry and overcome small geometry errors and quirks
• How to draw fundamental shapes with native tools, that will make up more complex shapes
• How to create funnel shapes, such as dust collection hose adapters
• Different methods to scale your 3d model and components inside your model
• How to draw helical/spiral shapes such as springs and screws
• How to draw nuts and bolts that can be 3d printed and interchangeable with SAE Nuts and Bolts
• How to prep your model and export for 3D printers
• Design and 3d model a cutting board display rack.
• Intro to exporting for print to scale templates
• Multiple ways to export for CNC and Laser depending on what software you use.
A Special thanks to @GeeksWoodShop for your animation demo on the @SketchUp KZfaq channel. It really helped me learn how to put together the animation on the intro of this video.

Bi Brian - do you know much about this new sketchup for iPad release and whether I will be able to do the techniques you teach on the iPad version of this software?

@Benham_Design 2 жыл бұрын

For the most part yes, In the course I use the free web version of SketchUp and for the most part it has all the same tools and functions that the iPad version has. The challenge you will have is that I use a keyboard and mouse where the iPad is set up mainly to use the pencil. So the techniques are the same but the pencil interface is different. So when I call out a shortcut key P to push pull, you will have to find the equivalent function with the pencil. @SketchUp did a series on their KZfaq channel about getting started with the iPad version. I think once you learn how to use the program you will be able to switch back and forth between versions pretty easily. Here is a link to their playlists. kzfaq.info/sun/PL-bndkJaV8A7sd2bapTWyre5XcJ8_0jQJ

Will I be able to use the free (Sketch Up 2017) version for this or do I need a paid version?

@Benham_Design 2 жыл бұрын

You can use any version you want. The main difference is that the toolbar will look different. I call out all the shortcut keys as I go to make it easier to follow along. In this course I use the free web based version. However 2017 will work just as well, but you won't have the benefits of the most recent updates
