How to Model Vases in SketchUp

If you need to make a vase in SketchUp (or is it v-ah-se?), Aaron has a couple of tips on how to make great-looking shapes using Follow Me, Weld Edges, and a Circle that's not where you think it should be!
Join Aaron as he drops key clues on how to model vases in SketchUp (dropping clues is okay, but dropping vases is not).

I have used the Follow Me tool as you are doing; however, I have used it to "preview" hollow forms for woodturning, inlays for turnings, and for segmented turning. Visually-very handy.

Nice little reminder video, thanks for sharing Aaron.

Thank you very much for this video
Very hand for wood turning

This got me thinking about tanks and vessels, and it works! Much better result than joining end caps onto a cylinder. Thanks for the tip 🖖🏽

Thanks. That was harder to copy than it looks. When I'm casting a circle below the bottom corner of my rectangle, it's a little tricky getting it drawn in the correct plane. I tend to get green when I want blue. I'm getting better at it but I'm not sure why. Some of it has to do with how I have the entire drawing space oriented. Leaning the space toward me for instance, makes it easier to have the cicle pop up on the x-y (blue) plane.

Thanks

To be clear, the size of the circle does not matter but the amount of segments in the circle directly affects the result.

[@SketchUp]

That is correct!

Probably worth pointing out that by default I believe Sketchup will pop up a message warning that the path (in this case the circle) is not connected to the profile. It’s obviously safe to ignore this!
