Thank you for all of the videos you post for sketchup, I've self-taught myself sketchup this last summer with the help of your videos. They're so clear and easy to understand. This skill will definitely help me in my interior design career. THANK YOU!!!
Good useful and clear video. I am looking forward to seeing many more - thanks Mike Kitson
Excellent video! Your instruction is perfectly clear. Glad that you actually talk in the video . . . this makes it so much easier to understand. There are so many videos on YT without audio which render most of them worthless. Great job!!

Lol - that's actually why I started making tutorials - I wanted to more clearly illustrate some of the things that I didn't understand to hopefully help other people avoid the problems I was having. Thanks!
Justin - This is great! You are really talented and a great teacher!
This has to be one of the most useful Setchup videos I've watched so far. I'm new to 3d printing and already being somewhat familiar with Sketchup I'm using it instead of trying to learn yet another CAD program to design objects. Many thanks fo this.

Thanks man ! You have no idea how your clip opens the doors for me and my art, cheers Mx
As you said at the end, i never understood how to even explore this tool, thanks again
Thanks, your explanation helped me out. This is such a cool Sketchup feature!
hay i just want to say that u are a doing a great thing teaching these things to all students communities all around the world.......THANKS.......
very slick .... thank you for accurate explainations
So grateful for this tutorial, I'd been battling for hours to extrude a moulding around a rectangle and couldn't work out why one of the corners was not mitred, turns out it was because I started with the profile in the corner! Very well explained and demonstrated.

I'm having a problem where as soon as I select the "follow me" tool it deselects the path I selected and says my path is not valid, so the dragging method actually worked for me. Thank you so much! Getting the square/rectangle to take on that shape that looks like it has molding is very cool! Being able to make those cool shapes will be fun. I need to figure out what shapes I want to create. Thank you so much!
I never realised the profile didn't have to be touching the path ! Fantastic insight ... thanks Justin

Thanks for your tutorials! When I use the follow me tool like you did for for the "cup" (usng the "L" shaped profile) and look up at the object from the bottom there isn't a surface. You're looking into a hollow object. I'm using sketchup for 3d printing and need to have a bottom surface. Is there a way to make it have a surface when you use the follow me tool? Thanks.

Can you taper the object that is following a given path? For example, a tree trunk tapers from the ground to it's highest point.
Super sir love u
With the SelfCAD Fallow path tool, you can extrude the same as with the SketchUp follow me tool but the same tool can also make copies along any path like an array tool, and its much easier to work with...

I using the SketchUp web free version. I'm trying to extrude an hollow tube exactly like you did. In my case I get the message that this is not a valid path. My path is luke a u shape, and every arcs and lines seem to be properly connected. When I triple click on one of the line, all lines and arcs that build up the path turn blue, which is a proof that Sketchup sees them as connected, right? Do you have some hints about what I'm doing wrong? An Update a few minutes later: After trying multiples times, the follow-up tool finally did the work. It seems to me that I modified nothing to the whole setup, except that I tried again after I wrote you. Hmmm?
Great explanation! Very useful, thanks!
can you use Hexagon in lattice
How do you draw the object before extrusion?
8:06 - is it.. ?

I have watched many videos on how to use the follow me tool. When I need to use it I have difficulty every time. An Example: Today I drew a square that I wanted to follow with a simple circle. So I draw the square and draw the circle at the end of one of the corners and use follow me and it doesn't finish the last corner. So I move the circle to the center of the line and it tells me that I can't extrude a curved object. So I move the circle outside the square and select the square and the follow me tool still it says I can't extrude a curved object. I Make one then the other then both groups and always the same result. I have no doubt that this is a great tool but when it takes me a long time to get it work every time I use, it has little value. What might be the problem? All of the videos that I have watched always start with the path and the object already created. Perhaps it would be useful to do a video that starts with draw the path, then draw the object. If the object is outside the path the extruded object will be larger or smaller than the path.
nice video

hi, I enjoy your tutorials. Great value. I'm trying to use follow me tool to make a half a gas cylinder using a half circle as the path but it doesn't seem possible in sketchup. Every time the half cylinder comes out distorted and just wrong! Can you help with this?
@Thesketchupessentials

It's a bit hard to say without seeing it - are you using an arc drawn by the arc tool, or did you draw a circle, then cut it in half with a line? Thanks!
@russellmulligan6216

Hi Justin, I drew a circle first on the horizontal plane, then cut it in half & from the centre point along the red axis formed a vertical canvas to draw a cross section of the gas cylinder then clicked on the perimeter of the half circle for a path & follow me. it forms a distortion in the middle and doesn't form to the flat plane of the half circle - (slightly angles away) I also tried clicking on the full half circle with a similar result except closed in. I also tried an arc half circle - both closed and open - with the same results. The only success I had was to use follow me on a full circle and then cut the object in half using intersecting plane but that was tedious. I'm left wondering why the follow me tool doesn't seem to function for this example??! Thanks in advance for any help you can give. Cheers
Amazing !! Follow the líder !! Thanks mi brother !! From mexicali México !!
Wasn’t expecting the plug 😂
If you use a rectangular shape as the path, the Follow Me tool will miter the corners.

Can you array an on object with the follow me tool? i.e. at ever 10' about a line place a object?

Another great tutorial. Thank you! Followme creates hidden faces. So, is there a way to 'convert' hidden faces to normal face ?

If you're extruding a circle, right click and explode it before using follow me - then the lines should come in as un-softened
