Very concise, but detailed enough to not get lost doing it. Very good work! :)
I had a hell of a time messing with random pieces left behind when you snap on a bad line... then you erase something, next thing you know, you have to remake surfaces all over the place... What I'm curious to know is how to make cutlists from this particular program if I can or not.. anyways, thanks for the tutorial. I think I'm going to buy a program. It's worth the investment to me if it has a little extra features, and especially if it can make cutlists automatically...
John thank you for all the videos. They are great way for a beginner to learn. My question to you is "Can you use the Sketch up program for other projects such as book cases, beds, dresser drawers, etc?
Hope no one is copying your measurements for building a cabinet, because all your plywood thicknesses are wrong. 3/4 inch plywood is not 3/4 inches just like a 2x4 is not 2" x 4".
That's a lot harder. You'll need to draw the center panel section first as a plain rectangle and extrude it to its final thickness. Next, while looking at the bottom edge of the panel, draw a line for where you want the edge of the raised panel to go and extrude that INTO the panel removing the material revealing a cut edge. Repeat that along all four edges. Then you can wrap that raised panel rectangle in the stile and rail boxes. That's how I'd do it anyway.

thanks for making this video! super helpful!
very educational.... nice content...
John, I love the channel. Do you have a full series on sketch up for cabinets? Also, does the program generate a cut list ?

Hi John, I've subscribed to this course but I can't seem to find the formula spreadsheet.
Which formula spreadsheet?
John thank you for all the videos. They are great way for a beginner to learn. My question to you is "Can you use the Sketch up program for other projects such as book cases, beds, dresser drawers, etc?
Yeah you can use it for anything.
great tutorial. for making the doors and drawer, couldn't you also make a rectangle around the cut out portion, then Offset it inward by .125"?
I think so.
U are wonderful
You can't just copy and paste the other side?
Yeah, I stopped watching when I realized he didn't know that.
Fantastic work. I take it that is not the free version of sketchup? If not, what version is that?
There's a pro version for people who use it for their business, but most features are available on the free version.
Hello John, great video, where can you get this software?
found it John, thanks
hey i have a question what is the program you use
SketchUp

Hi John, How do i set up my command tools just like yours? I have the free sketchUp Pro
Not sure. I don't have the free version installed anymore.

You think 23/32 vs 24/32 is going to ruin a concept drawing?
Hi. Where can I get your excel work sheet from?

How can i draw raised panel doors?
That's a lot harder. You'll need to draw the center panel section first as a plain rectangle and extrude it to its final thickness. Next, while looking at the bottom edge of the panel, draw a line for where you want the edge of the raised panel to go and extrude that INTO the panel removing the material revealing a cut edge.

Thanks for the reply! upon playing with it a little more, I figured it out
