This is a good demonstration of an essential technique: use of components. Beginners to Sketchup often build without using groups or components, with their model quickly becoming complex and very difficult to develop further. This method would be a very good training session for any new user, to become familiar with the way components behave.
@Eric, shared. This is cool to show as many new users will benefit from this greatly.
Very Nice! 0.0 that face I have when say the "only one component" and.. You are a genius not crazy at all. In Ancient churchs and catedrals the "master builder" use the "one component rule" to make all the building harmoniy with that selected ratio, usualy put in a "rock block" in the front of the building. Then the workers use that block as reference to mesures others parts of the construction. For more see SteveBass "Beauty Memory Unity" Book; a theory of proportion in arquitecture and design, him also have some youtube webinars.
Awesome technique. Thanks. Very helpful. However I was expecting you to build the building😭 because that's what you showed me. Could create a part 2 of you technique of building the building. Thanks
Great video! It would be really helpful for those of us trying to learn modifier keys if you could show on the screen the key and function as you use them. Possibly a box in the lower left corner. Thanks
My Maldour models on the 3D warehouse are made entirely from spheres. With file sizes between 54 to 104KB, there is power in components!
Very interesting. I can see how this would be useful to conceptualise ideas quickly to enable discussions around design.
This is crazy, stupid and that's why it's fun.
Thanks Eric!
Cool idea, but that way madness lies!
I’m not sure the purpose of making it a component. Why not a simple group? The prospect of being in a large model and accidentally editing inside the component thus blowing up the whole model seems reason enough to not do this.
From a programming standpoint I can image the file is very small. It only contains one cube, and then many instances of that cube with different transforms. So it's an interesting exercise, but using groups would be completely normal to make this design. I would probably make components for the windows and shapes that appear identical. I don't like to distort components, because it usually happens by mistake and then later you edit something and it causes unintended changes elsewhere.
Of course copying your pavers x10 gave you a run of 11, not 10, because you already had one!
We call those math slip-ups 'easter eggs' to see if you're paying close enough attention to spot one...so good job!
