Спасибо, Justin! Очень нравятся Ваши уроки. Всегда грамотно, лаконично и по теме. За короткое время, я получила столько полезной информации, сколько не получила за несколько лет изучения скетчап. Пожалуйста, продолжайте! Без Вас, ну никак не разобраться в этих не проходимых дебрях тысяч плагинов). Спасибо))) И... привет из Киева)
This tutorial is amazing! Thank you! I know you did this almost 5 years ago at this point but this has helped me discover new ways of molding things. BTW the links are out of date.
Hi Justin ! Can you import an image to sketch on the drawing surface ? Or should I draw all my formers, or templates, and then bring them on the surface created on the green axis ? Thanks
Hello! I want to ask how to make a "NOT" manifold solid object into a solid one..? Because even the solid inspector says nothing's wrong with my model but i just can't slice it because it is not a manifold solid object. Thank you in advance
Werry interresting IS it possible to do thé same with Fusion 360 ? Could you maybe make a vidéo for a geometric wall with this technique sorry for m'y english ! I am French...
Hello, we have imported a 3d model Horse Shape in to sketch up and have closed/ repaired all open faces with Solid inspector ... but when slicing in many incomplete parts/ slicers
this will work for only 3axie cnc 1st you need to know the thickness of the board you will be using ( you will add that to the thickness option on the slicer plugin ) 2rd you need to select the flatten option on the plugin. 3rd select the flatten groups make them in a 2d profile 4rh draw the board size of your CNC 5th place each part into the board ( make sure you understand where it will cut 1st ) 6th delete everything but the parts you will cut make sure you don't have groups and if you can weld ( with the weld plugin) all the lines together 7th export the file as a DXF that should work if not you will need to head to AutoCAD 1st open your file 2rd select all and purge all lines 3rd select a part and join lines 4th move to 0 ;0 points then 5th export file as dxf
Hello sir how did you do creating a standing rectangle.i tried how many times my rectangle shapes will not become a green color, And lastly what command are you using when do a fillet line of a chair shape?.thanks
Justin, great videos. How would one create models for liquid architecture? Currently I am creating the internal structures and then adding facades or skins. I was looking at some of Zaha Hadid's buidlings and wondering how they modeled them.
Hi Dennis - do you have images of what you're talking about? Each building is approached differently depending on what you're trying to create - some you'd approach with an extension like curviloft, others with an extension like flowify, and still others with tools like Artisan or Vertex Tools or SubD - it just depends. Thanks!
You may want to try either the Curviloft Skinning option (the third option in the tool), or maybe something like Soap Skin and Bubble. That said, especially for the first image, that's a fairly difficult shape to make. They discuss something similar in this thread (forums.sketchup.com/t/help-with-hyperbolic-curves/16523), but I'm not 100% sure how I'd make something like that in SketchUp. They probably used a program more like Rhino for that building. Thanks!
Hi, i have a problem, maybe two. 1. When i find the error with solid i can’t use any command, i need to exit from extentions to modify my Group. 2. (last but not least) When i draw the line that close the Group for Created a Solid this no work, i make a counturn of the hole, but this step no work, the only method to close the hole wiht a single line it’s explode, but it’s impossible next have a solid. I not understading why.
My understanding (and I haven't tested this) is if you export your curves to something like DWG or DXF, they get exported as true curves. I don't have a ton of CNC experience, but don't you have to export to an external software anyway to do the actual routing? You can't just do that straight out of SketchUp, can you? Thanks
You are correct. You would say export the file in dxf format making sure the camera view is set to parallel projection into cnc software such as vectric where you create a cutting tool path for each shape.
If you want to add a hole in this bench, probably the easiest way is to do it before you slice the bench. More info on cutting holes in objects in SketchUp here - th-cam.com/video/yZ5bVL4HNU4/w-d-xo.html
I have done all the things you described in your video and they just don't work, its ok sculpting your organic surface BUT when you go to lay your project flat it doesn't work!!! SketchUp doesn't smooth out the curves, instead all you get is a load of facets. in short it's just a big octagon instead of a smooth curve. I have exported this to my CNC machine and it looks terrible. Please don't tell people SketchUp can do things it's just not equipped for. BS!!!
Justin you're among the best sketchup teacher i know. You have a great way to explain things. Thank you very much!
Trying my best! :)
I agree!
Your knowledge about sketchup is really impressive!
Thanks :)

Thank you so mutch for your videos
Big thanks from morocco
Thanks very much for watching!
You're literally the best!!Thank you!
You're welcome!
Thank you for this nice tutorial. I'm about to try organic modelling :)
Glad you liked it!
Just what I was looking for. Thanks!

Thanks Justin. Nice tutorial. I'll definitely be using these on a few future projects.
Awesome - glad you liked it!
kool, this is what I'm looking for. Thx mate!
ur videos r sooo awesome and easy to understand...
Glad it helped!
this is just perfect. thank you boy
Bravo Justin, thanks a lot
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the video!
thank you Justin! Learned a lot from u. is this also working if the base line of the bench is also a curve? I will to make it !
Congratulations!!!
:)
Good stuff! VERY nice presentation :-)
Thanks very much! :)

Thanh you
Werry interresting IS it possible to do thé same with Fusion 360 ? Could you maybe make a vidéo for a geometric wall with this technique sorry for m'y english ! I am French...
Is it possible to select each slices and hide the rest of them? It maybe be needed to cut templates. And thanks for another great video!
Sure...just use the hide tool
Thanks a lot
Thani you for this video
Thanks for the video.
Glad you liked it!
Hello, we have imported a 3d model Horse Shape in to sketch up and have closed/ repaired all open faces with Solid inspector ... but when slicing in many incomplete parts/ slicers
is there an option to automatically create a horizontal cross section to help secure the vertical pieces in place at exactly the 1 inch spacing?
Not automatically
Hi Justin
How can I apply this bench design to CNC machine to cut the slices?
ungroupe it and put it on xy
this will work for only 3axie cnc
1st you need to know the thickness of the board you will be using ( you will add that to the thickness option on the slicer plugin )
2rd you need to select the flatten option on the plugin.
3rd select the flatten groups make them in a 2d profile
4rh draw the board size of your CNC
5th place each part into the board ( make sure you understand where it will cut 1st )
6th delete everything but the parts you will cut make sure you don't have groups and if you can weld ( with the weld plugin) all the lines together
7th export the file as a DXF
that should work if not you will need to head to AutoCAD
1st open your file
2rd select all and purge all lines
3rd select a part and join lines
4th move to 0 ;0 points then
5th export file as dxf
Hello sir how did you do creating a standing rectangle.i tried how many times my rectangle shapes will not become a green color, And lastly what command are you using when do a fillet line of a chair shape?.thanks
Tap "R", then tap an arrow key - th-cam.com/video/tHYXGt84yGo/w-d-xo.html
thank you! but i can't find curviloft, is ther another ext. i can use?
its ok i found it
Thank you!
Thanks for watching!

There are many types and shapes. I'm looking that these as inspiration. I just tried creating a spline and using curviloft but it locked up.
You may want to try either the Curviloft Skinning option (the third option in the tool), or maybe something like Soap Skin and Bubble. That said, especially for the first image, that's a fairly difficult shape to make.

Great video! But how can I draw this bench without plugins?
The short answer is...it would be very difficult. Why would you want to if you have a workflow for creating it with plugins?
I want to make a printable template to make a 3d cardboard puzzle. I'd like to make a sliced image into a printable PDF. How do I do that?
Usually I export my models to Layout for this
great tutorial boss it helps great can we esterbilish a personal relationship as my teacher pls i love your lectures
Hello
would have been fun to slice up a downloaded model from the varehouse. Is this possible?.. Was thinking cnc milling layer pr layer
Only if they're modeled as solids - otherwise the extension won't work...
Will something like fixit101 automatically solve all the problems you had with curviloft to resolve manually?
Not sure - I haven't really worked much with that extension - that said, it's probably worth a try if nothing else is working - thanks!
I think the curviloft plug in cant be found when i enter the link help
I had the same issue
Thanks Man...
👍
I would suggest users look at slicer for fusion 360 videos.
Hi, i have a problem, maybe two.
1. When i find the error with solid i can’t use any command, i need to exit from extentions to modify my Group.
2. (last but not least) When i draw the line that close the Group for Created a Solid this no work, i make a counturn of the hole, but this step no work, the only method to close the hole wiht a single line it’s explode, but it’s impossible next have a solid.
I not understading why.
i resolve point 2, i don’t click “modify group”. =)
Hi Justin! The curviloft link is not working for me, any other option?
Download it from SketchUcation
Use tab to find each problem.
When i press curviloft on shapes its not working it showes random numbers on the faces
Since sketchup doesn't have true curves. You shouldn't directly go to cnc from sketchup. You need something like vectric in between sketchup and cnc.
My understanding (and I haven't tested this) is if you export your curves to something like DWG or DXF, they get exported as true curves. I don't have a ton of CNC experience, but don't you have to export to an external software anyway to do the actual routing? You can't just do that straight out of SketchUp, can you? Thanks
You are correct. You would say export the file in dxf format making sure the camera view is set to parallel projection into cnc software such as vectric where you create a cutting tool path for each shape.
How to install plugin in sketchup?
Here you go - th-cam.com/video/3d_XuoJlJFc/w-d-xo.html - It says SketchUp 2017, but it should be good for other versions as well (after 2016)...
How to add hole in this bench.
If you want to add a hole in this bench, probably the easiest way is to do it before you slice the bench. More info on cutting holes in objects in SketchUp here - th-cam.com/video/yZ5bVL4HNU4/w-d-xo.html
Slicer is not working SU 2021
