Hi everyone! Let me know if you have any questions about today's tutorial in the comments below! Remember to download the example file at www.thesketchupessentials.com/floorplan !
Thank you so much! As for a complete noob, which i am, your tutorials are really helpful! I'm going to renovate my new home myself. Have no actual experience. Struggling with making a project of future interior. So, your videos help me a lot! Definitely Like and Subscription.
1. Scaling - import image as image - set to maximum texture - Place in the workspace - Explode the image - Group the image - Find a point where the size is known - Use the tape measure tool to measure that point's actual distance in workspace - change the measured distance to the DESIRED distance (specified distance in image) - Resize > yes - Check if it's scaled properly 2. Modeling - Use line tool to trace the outer lines - OFFSET for the interior walls - trace inner lines - offset inner lines - draw lines for openings 3. Extrude - Group exterior walls - Group interior walls - reverse faces - extrude all walls - double-click for shortcut - repeat - make the specified openings - repeat for the interior walls - delete lines using eraser
Yes please do an ep5! This program is a little different from the usual AutoCAD and rhino and these walk-throughs have been super helpful with learning sketchup! Thanks again!
Thank you so much for sharing your wealth of knowledge with us! It's so helpful. Sometimes I am struggling to find the right videos to watch on your page because there is a lot of content and I'm not that well versed in navigating TH-cam - but I'm specifically looking for helping with modeling for Interior Design.
Hi, honestly i think i will always enjoy learn many tips in this channel so really thankyou for sharing 🙏, i hope i can find here how to effectively produce a good document for client just using sketchup, and i just find it here ! :)
Hi Justin! Would there be any part 2 to this video where we can add material and a second floor to this image? It would be a great practice session for a newbie like me! Your tutorials are amazing.
what if I created the floor plan in sketchup with correct dimensions and then i want to make it 3d, do I need to export it as a jpeg and then start a new sketchup template & import it in? Or can i just start push/pulling walls in my original file?
Great tutorial my friend, please I am having an issue with getting license for my sketchup 2017,2018,2019 & 2020. Please help me out so I can develop myself with sketchup. Thanks.
Hello love your videos these days. I've imported some house i made in sketchup to blender, and whatever i do it was rendering it with full of noise ... .Is there any way to fix that in the beginning. I mean can you import that model into blender and render it. x)
Thank you Justin, very well explained, easy to understand and very useful. I do have a question though - I have a cabinet set as a component. And I want to resize it. Make wider / from 1000 mm to 2000mm. When I do so using scaling the objects widens to the desired size, but the sides of the cabinet double in thickness. From 18mm to 36. I built the cabinet from individuall components, sides, bottom etc. . And I just cant figure out a way how to change dimensions of an object without having sketchup change the dimension of some part..... Can you shed some light on this please, or direct me to where I can learn more about this... thanx
I wish you would go a little slower when you’re finishing up the windows and such. How did you set up the interior walls to pull them up together? I keep trying groups and components and neither is working.
Hi great video, Thanks! I have one question. When using the offset tool to offset outward I am having a problem getting the two selected walls to stay highlighted, as soon as I type "F" or click on the toolbar button the highlighting goes away. I tried holding shift, alt, and control, but nothing seems to work as soon as I select a different tool the highlighting is gone. Any idea what I may be doing wrong? Thanks again.
when i try to select the base piece for doors it also selected everything around and not only that on the ground as in the video can someone explain please ?
How when you do the move/copy to add the height for the door and wall do you keep the copied rectangle going vertical, mine keeps flying around everywhere and I can't drop it so it is perfectly in the door frame - am I missing a trick? Thank you in advance!
do you want to resize the model ? note that components within the model that were loaded from external files will not be resized how to resize, i have got this popup
youre not gonna learn anytNice tutorialng with that ntallity, if you want to learn sotNice tutorialng stick with it, if youre not willing to do that maybe its not

Great video. All praise the metric system, I don't know how ya'll do it with these needless fractions. ❤️
Lol - I don't even think about it because I grew up with it :)
Nice to know we’re comfortable using both systems. 👍🏼👍🏼

Oh mhen!!
God bless TH-cam!
And God bless you sir. Am so passionate about this sketchup & I'm glad you're helping me get a hang of it!!
I 'only' use SketchUp for woodworking designs and don't need these techniques, BUT this is fascinating. Thanks!

Right!!
Outstanding stuff! About to start finishing my basement, have the paper floorplan and this will be really helpful!
Awesome - glad I could help!
you record with hardware outside of the program. Great tutorial btw it was very detailed but still just right for beginners.
Sooo helpful I tried watching a ton of other videos in how to do this and yours was the best
Dude you just saved my life woooooooaaawwww. Thank you so much sketch up god
This was awesome! Thank you! I would love to see a video about adding furniture, etc.
This was very well explained! Love this way of doing the windows and doors as an alternative to knocking out holes through surfaces!
Glad you liked it! :)
So smooth! EverytNice tutorialng he says goes into my brain and sticks in.
Love this man! it helped me refresh my skp modeling skills.
Brilliant!!! Thank you so much! This really helps
Such an awesome tutorial..! Kudos.
I'm assuming I could combine this technique in collaboration with the Medeek suite I just bought. Thanks, helpful as always!
Great video mate. Please do the stairs and second floor and furniture as well.
Possibly - great video idea :)
Excellent video, thank you!
what if I created the floor plan in sketchup with correct dimensions and then i want to make it 3d, do I need to export it as a jpeg and then start a new sketchup template & import it in? Or can i just start push/pulling walls in my original file?
I cannot seem to get the scaling to take effect. What am I missing?
very good lesson i got from your video...i like it.....thanks
Glad to hear that!
Excellent. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
that’s a very good tutorial!
Glad you think so!
thanks for this valuable lesson
Hi, awesome tutorials!!!! Just wondering what pc components you are running to use sketch up? Such as what CPU and GPU, does it even matter ?
Really depends - it's much more important when doing rendering that just modeling in SketchUp
Great tutorial my friend, please I am having an issue with getting license for my sketchup 2017,2018,2019 & 2020. Please help me out so I can develop myself with sketchup. Thanks.

Try this - th-cam.com/video/_Pmy8M_FmMY/w-d-xo.html
The stairs, how do you prefer to do those?
To unhindered all use the cmd+shift+e (ctrl+shift+e in windows I guess) shortcut
I don't understand
@@Thesketchupessentials instead of going to edit>unhide> all use the key command, it’s way quicker
@@hectorvanderaa Ah, got it
I clicked the link below and it opens to a separate page that says click the to download floorplan image and nothing happens, can you assist please?
helpfully as always! Thank you very much!
Thanks, really helped
You're welcome!
nice tuto Thank you!
Hi sir! Do u have full course on Udemy? If so , please do send the link.
Thank u

How do keep the floorpan visible even if I open the group with the walls? I did not hide it, it just goes white. Thanks

How when you do the move/copy to add the height for the door and wall do you keep the copied rectangle going vertical, mine keeps flying around everywhere and I can't drop it so it is perfectly in the door frame - am I missing a trick? Thank you in advance!
I'm on a Mac
ooooo I figured it out - in case anyone else needs the answer, press and hold the up key to keep it on the blue/vertical axis!
do you want to resize the model ?
note that components within the model that were loaded from external files will not be resized
how to resize, i have got this popup
Thanks - perfect!
ihave made from plan but certain areas i cant push its locked how can i remove its lock ?
How please did you do the eraser thing to delete lines easly
what version of sketchup is this?
Hi how to calculate non-straight pipe length?
Very helpful.
Glad you think so!
Do you run this on windows or mac? any idea howcome i am missing some of the toolbars on the left and right hand side compared to yours?
Windows. Probably you haven't enabled those toolbars?
Excellent.
100% I make the sickest soft in my head all day long then the mont I open a DAW...
what about a cad file. i always find i have problems with a imported Autocad file.
I started here.
Having problems setting image to scale. It seems to always want to create a guide and doesn't change the scale. whyyyy?? ugh
thanks, it helps
repeated same the exact steps over and over again on Mac with latest Sketchup but somehow it does not work. Difference between Mac and PC?
Shouldn't be - I don't think the process is really different...
wow, very cool video, youre fire
where is the part 5 pls someone answer me hehe thanks
I've always wanted to make soft but every ti I download software to do so, I just look at the 5,000 buttons/settings, cry for a few
...what?
5 minutes in and tNice tutorials is 10 tis harder than garageband on my phone
Thank you 🙏
:)
When I group everything together it will not push/ pull up. What did I do wrong?
Are you inside the group trying to push pull the raw faces?
my tape measure tool didn't do anything to scale
try on mac does work , dont know why (scale by measurement )
PAUSE THE VIDEO!!! TNice tutorialS IS A GREAT SKILL TO HAVE!!!
Thanks sir
:)
How do i know the thickness of the wall
You'd measure it based on your scaled plan image using the tape measure tool
Takk for hjelpen :-)
└⚠️ TNice tutorials folder is empty
As on MAC is diferent, then it is hard to follow your videos...
