They can then print the project documents and full size templates at their local FedEx Office for the class.

"All the SketchUp models and the resulting LayOut documentation ( drawings and templates) I produce are exported to PDF and distributed via email to my students. Tim's use of SketchUp and LayOut has also become an essential part of his woodworking course curriculum: So it is saves me time, frustration, and materials.įrom one SketchUp model I can produce multiple orthographic views (front, side, top), assembled and exploded views, one or more views of different details, full-size templates and even cross-sections." The construction process is much more straightforward after having 'built' the piece as a 3D SketchUp model. The model inherently provides a much higher quality of design and documentation. "There are numerous advantages to having created a complete 3D SketchUp model first in the computer before moving to the shop.

Tim now takes advantage of 3D models produced with SketchUp to improve his workflow in the shop: He was also unable to extract any quantities or cut lists from his drawings. Exploded views, close-ups of joint details, full-size templates or any other custom view of the project could not be seen without creating another special drawing. Tim found that any type of pre-visualization of his projects was also time consuming. The 2D drawings that I took to the shop were often rough, introduced more errors and had to be sorted out in the shop resulting in unnecessary re-work before getting to the point of actual construction." Unfortunately, individual 2D drawing can be difficult to interpret and may not supply enough information – especially in the case of complex joinery.

"Before SketchUp and LayOut, I relied on 2D software and 2D drawings for my projects. He uses the software to resolve technical issues, communicate more effectively, and become a more productive woodworker in general.

  • WOOD has found that SketchUp and LayOut are effective tools to help woodworkers become more efficient and better builders.
  • You know a model has scenes because each scene appears as a tab at the top of the model viewing area.Tim Killen of Killen When a model contains scenes, you can play those scenes as an animation.
  • Perspective: In this view, lines vanish to a horizon, so certain items appear closer whereas other items appear to be far away.
  • When you print in this view, line length has a scale (for example 4’ in SketchUp = 1" on paper). This view is also known as an orthographic view.
  • Parallel Projection (Windows) or Field of View (Mac): In this view, lines appear parallel in both 3D and 2D space.
  • In SketchUp Desktop Viewer, you can toggle between two perspective options, which you find on the Camera menu:
