Great work! That's one of the thing I have to do at work. This video just show me a new more simple and reliable method of getting it done.

Great tutorial thank you ...learning from scratch, so these short films are brilliant for creating my balustrade models

Wow!! Ive seen you use push/pull resize method before, but this was a perfect example to show the process in detail and the incredible result it can have. Thank you so much for sharing as always.

This was a very useful tutorial. I also would never have considered SketchUp for models with double curved surfaces. And this tutorial is concise and easily understood. Thank you.

Thank, this is great. I know I have done things like this in the past, but great to have a reminder of how to do it. Love it.

Great tutorial thanks - learning so much about how powerful Sketchup is!

This is the video I have been searching for long, thank you so much.

Really clear and not annoying! I think that's a plus!

Ooh man... I've been trying to crack how to do that well with the native set for a while now (I'm a bit slow :) ) Thank you!!!!

İki gündür benzer bir formu plugin kullanmadan çizmeye çalışıyorum. Videonuz sayesinde çizebildim sonunda, çok teşekkürler😊

Thanks for this video! Im doing stuff on sketchup in school and this will definitely help me with it!

good stuff !! ..... there are tricks in SketchUp that never go old. I remember a tutorial by Bonnie Roskes w/SketchUp 8 and she showed you how to created a computer mouse in the same way.

Like magic! You really inspire me to try more things with the native tools!

This was quite helpful. I am new to sketch and this exposes the brain of this type of program. Thank you.

Perfect method for what I need to do! Thanks much!

Very helpful technique for us newbies. Thanks!

Really helpful! Thanks very much for this. Great explanation.

So smooth!! Thank you for share this.

Brilliant! It just happens that I need to model a Ducati fuel tank. I thought I would need the sand tools but no. Fantastic. Thank you.

Thank you this has answered some question i had initially after watching yr cobra body build. What was the add on you used in that if i may ask ?

Thank you VERY much

I use a similar process to make canopies for model aircraft. Except I only work with one half side then copy, move, and flip to make the other side.

thank you great job.

Great!! Thanks!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH 😎

@@AaronMakingStuff Good point Aaron, I stand corrected. On a connected note, let's suppose I am tracing a curved object like in your video, but only using the line tool. As you move along the outline, SU insists on inferencing axis and endpoints as usual. However, in this case I actually want to turn this snap off, so I can make small deviations. Is this possible?

@AaronMakingStuff

4 жыл бұрын

Lawrence Cuthbert I generally use the arc tool or the bezier extension to draw shapes like this. To avoid “over inferencing” I generally just zoom in closer... close enough that the point on the reference image is closer to your cursor than the inferences point.

Great job

Thank you so much..

impressive. thanks

That's very clever.

Thank you 🦋

I also done leather bedback using same technique.

Great...tedious at first but satisfying...!

Fabulous explanation ;¬)

muito bom gostei do tutoria

hi i very prefer your each videos thank you for you share

excelent!

Thank you

I like it! I am currently trying to model a removable steel rack for my pickup out of 1 1/2" pipe and am having some issues so I think some of these tricks will be helpful. Would the extensions mentioned be of help to me in my project?

4:13 how did you manage to put that extra line into the group?

Feels like this just highlights that SketchUp could use much better native support for organic shapes

@cup_and_cone

Agreed... This is like 30 minutes to make one organic shaped object that isn't really even following tight parameters after smoothing is applied.

Amazing

wery useful, make more on this aurgument

How are you rotating the model while using other tools?

I don’t know if you made this or the Bathtub video first, but the bathtub could be easily done this way.

Thanks

Спасибо.

That looks tedious and repetitive, exactly the kind of thing I like to do in Sketchup.

gonna do a lot of organic modeling

Question: instead of making vertical reference lines and pulling the smaller face (out of the 3) from right to left, wouldn't it be faster to make horizontal references and drag the biggest face from bottom to the top? You would do it much quicker then. I hope I am being clear. Let me know, if I am mistaken in my suggestion.

Aaron sort-of addressed this at the end of the video: doing it your way is possible, and probably faster, but ends up with a mesh which is less dense / detailed, so the end result might not have curves which are as smooth. It really depends on your needs.

I hit the like button for giving users an idea BUT a program with more than 800mbytes on drive it's a shame that can't have native tools for curves! and also you don't know how much it suffers a user to play with its old school UNLOCKED , Unorganized toolbars and its crashes time to time plus weakness for large amount of polygons... the only and best power point of Sketchup is very good SNAPPING in 3d world that other giant 3d program never solved it this way. if anyone puts it I won't waste a minute to migrate from sketchup to that program.

Hi Aaron, In my humble opinion I think this method is not very efficient. You can easily create such organic forms in other CAD programs by using "Loft" or "Network Patch" I think it's possible to create a model like this in SketchUp using the same CAD methods with the free extension, Fredo Curviloft. It's a very powerful extension.

@AaronMakingStuff

4 жыл бұрын

This is absolutely possible using other methods! I like to say that anything that you do in SketchUp can probably be done a half dozen other ways, too! The challenge here stemmed from a Live Modeling session where ONLY native tools were used to create specific organic shapes. This was the best (and least painful) method using only Sketchup native commands!
