great concept. I was looking for a bead of weld, and viola. How about posting the skp of your model in the notes, or posting in 3d warehouse, to avoid having to create a model.
Interesting tutorial! Is this natural shapes tool useful to create car parts or plane wings? The problem being to be able to join those smooth surfaces together!
Smoove tool is quite similar to Push Pull in characteristics but appears to be lacking in been able to enter a precise distance in elevation. Or Blue axes. That would be Very beneficial when one is mapping a large lot with an altimeter if one could do that. Or am I missing something?
Dear Aron, Many thanks. But i wanted to say, how can I include the coordinate grid in the drawing, so if you sprint the drawing you can see in the the building referenced to the coordinate system. I also have the requirement to indicate in the drawing the specific coordinates of some specific points of the designed building. How can i include the grid and the points (And find out the Value of the coordinate of certain point) Many thanks Sorry for my spanglish, I hope I make me understand. Best regards Jürgen von Storch
It really comes down to what you are hoping to do with the data. I would recommend posting this question to our Forum (forums.sketchup.com). There are many people on there that can jump in and give you a hand.
Yes! If you look through the Skill Builder playlist, I did a video on that a few years back. Basically, you can make flat planes to intersect the mesh as specific heights to create lines. it's actually pretty simple!
Hi, thanks for the video. I'm designing a couch with organically shaped backrest. I used the ''from contours function'' to create a very simple but bend geometry... now i cant use fredo corner on it - which makes it useless for me. The method shown in the ''How to create organic shapes with native tools in SketchUp'' takes sadly way to long and is unlike fredo corner irreversible. I'd love to see a tutorial on how to round corners on geometry that has been created with sandbox tools :) Have a lovely day!
Jurgen von Storch SketchUp’s a is is a local axis. If you want to add your model to a real world location, use the Add Location feature in SketchUp Pro.

Great stuff. Easy and accessible. Always loved this program.
Thank you very much! This was so instructive and soothing to make...I didn't know how to use the sandbox tool, first time :D
Stay immortal and healthy, Aaron! You show and explain the material very well! :)
Doing my best!
Excellent video. Very helpful and well structured. Thank you!
Tnx a lot! Very clearly explained and very helpful like all your videos.
thanx for breaking down information in useful way
Love your Skill Builder Series!
And I love that you watch them!
Please another one on that subject! Really helpful
Thank you! This was a great video that packed a lot of clear and useful information into a short time span.
Great work flow using sandbox. Thanks
As always fabulous instructional. And a cool T-shirt ;¬)
Yes....I learned something. Alot...Thanks Aaron
Cool style, ...not a lot of hype just good, honest, and clear instruction.
It would be great to know if there is a way to deselect the boundary edges so they stay in their original position?
Thank you! i really learned a lot from this video
They are working you to the bone Aaron.
Very helpful. Thank you very much!
yes very accurate... well explained... thank you
Super helpful, cheers!

That's excellent!
Like this! Good job.
Great video! Can this tool be used to create furniture like sofas?
..THANK YOUUUUUUUUU SO MUCH!!!
Thanks. I'm trying to make a sloped grass area. I think I understand how to now.
What license of SketchUp do you need to be able to use the sandbox tool?
Hi, is it possible to import contour CAD drawing file to Sketchup?

Is there a way to make a grid with rectangles instead of squares with sandbox?
I cant seem to get a 0 value on stamp. Any thoughts?
How you changing the views ?
Use Fredo's toposhaper plugin. The default sandbox tools have been desperately lacking since they were introduced.
Cool :) ...how you do you navigate in the scene simultaneously zooming and orbiting? ...so smoothly that the orbit cursors is not shown even?
I'm pretty sure in his live streams, you can see he has another tool at his desktop and he orbits and zooms with it, it's like a second mouse.

@@AaronMakingStuff ok, many thanks I will try it out there
thank you too
you are awesome.
is there an option to create contour lines from a mesh??
Yes! If you look through the Skill Builder playlist, I did a video on that a few years back. Basically, you can make flat planes to intersect the mesh as specific heights to create lines. it's actually pretty simple!
@@AaronMakingStuff great! thank you
How come when you add detail you call them quads when they are 3 sided spaces?
Bj Beatty In Civil engineering it’s called a TIN: Triangular Irregular Network.
Thank u

Thanks for this video, please can you teach me how to include real coordinate axis in a drawing that has a building and landscape. many thanks

não tem pra o sketchup 2020?
Yep! It is a part of every version of SketchUp Pro for years, now!
Sir I need to learn it from first to end but your vedios are not step by step please advice

Looks like sandbox needs a two hour tutorial.
Nah... it's way too easy!
Trainer: can't find reverse faces
Me: sees as the first option when right clicked🌚
is there a sandbox option for the free version?
