The best is always the simplest... Thanks so many millions times for all and this videos...

[@steverugg389]

Great video’s you’re definitely better than 85% of the others! Easier to follow and understand.

[@SketchUp]

Glad you like them! Also... who is in the 15% that we're not better than... we need to talk to them...

[@keggyification]

Thanks Aaron, I've really enjoyed these sandbox tools tutorials.

[@Kupermanishaii]

Grate video! Thank you so much!!

[@GSPlan-id7mm]

Really great and easy way for terrain creation.

[@dmk-ki4ny]

Nice video, thanks, Aaron.

[@ahmad-murery]

I think you covered every tool in SketchUp,
I wish you can make some basic Ruby coding tutorials,
Thanks

[@lepiin]

Cool video! btw you can get pretty interesting results if u first drape and then use this shape to stamp on the same place.

[@iancole7624]

When building highways or cutting a building into a landscape, the angle of repose for the soil determines the maximum slope of the battered ground between old and new
The intersection point, is never a constant distance
Often rather than an angle a maximum slope of 1:3 or 1:4 will be given by the geotechnical engineer
Q - can sketchup be updated to accommodate a slope angle rather than specifying a constant distance?

[@mc.drawing6255]

thank you

[@dancascino701]

Thanks , nicely done. I would like to create a terrain model for my property for landscape and shed improvement. unfortunately I only use the web version and it doesn't allow for geolocation. I also use the older 2017 make version on my desktop. (faster response). I can bring County GIS contour maps into a photo editing software and extract just the lines. Is there a way to take these lines and somehow create an elevation mesh to project a google earth or drone overhead photo onto? It is hard for me to justify the $300 annual fee for a small home project.
Thanks, once again, for your work, its been very helpful

[@melissalaird2006]

I'm curious if you can add this to an existing project? Like if you have a house you designed and then you have different properties you want to put it on. Can you make the mesh then add it to the house model to see how it looks on the different properties?

[@dannolan6093]

Great videoes, thanks. Can the surface of a model created with sandbox be thickened so it can be 3D printed?

[@joopterwijn]

Now you dropped a “path”, perfect horizontally. Usually the path is slopped. Is that also possible? And besides a path, for instance a ditch with a rounded (or other..) profile, it it possible to push such profile in the mesh. And of course the ditch is often slopped,..

i learn a lot🤩😘😍😍

[@mapit07]

Thanks Aaron very timely video as I'm ready to place a road system into my project which is a model railroad I'm building by using Sketchup. My question is I'm working in N Scale which is 160 of real world size, is it better to work in N scale for the design or scale everything up to real world size? I've heard it's better for SketchUp to work in real-world size and then scale down. Your thoughts?

[@AaronMakingStuff]

I always recommend working in real world scale, then scaling models down as needed. SketchUp was created to work on architectural models, so very small details can be an issue.

Bonsoir, j'aime suivre votre chaîne, d'ailleurs j'ai appris pas mal de choses avec vous,mais dommage que je ne comprend pas l'englais,est ce qu'il y'a moyen de faire des sous titrage en français.merci

[@zahari_s_stoyanov]

Sandbox is Sketchup's attempt to implement quads but some functions are still limited :(

[@duniaabdulrahmanalbaaj9065]

can I get ( free sandbox plugin 2019) please?
