Matthias ayer me compre una sierra de banco y mas herramientas porque te considero un genio. Disfrute mucho tu simplicidad de explicacion. Segui adelante con tu excelente trabajo. Un saludo desde Argentina.
I would love to see your take on uses of nested components vs. groups. Great job on these tutorials. As with many programs there are many ways to do something and it's always good to see others viewpoints. One thing you might add is that for things like push-pull and others, the last distance is retained so you can just double click to repeat it. This is great for things like punching holes through something. Thanks for all you do.
it is what it is. Easy to fix for you - don't watch my video. Because if I had to fix all that stuff, I wouldn't be MAKING the video, so you can just pretend I didn't make it and not watch it.
Agreed. The question was "Do you think Sketchup is suitable for very large projects?" My answer was "SketchUp is suitable to design a car" Then he asked how it would compare to using a full blown autocad for large projects and I made an analogy. Have a good day!
Very useful and thorough. A lot of this can be intuited fairly easily, but it's not something you would likely get around to thinking about. Now my toolbelt is a little bit bigger. Thanks!
Good morning Mathias. Haven't had much time lately to send my "thumbs-up" on your videos, sorry for that, I enjoyed all of them. Enjoyed this morning your series on the new) Pantarouter and later this afternoonI looked at a part of your series of tutorials on Scetch-up. Both series are awsome to me. Be assured that I'm going to use them to upgrade my skills. Thanks for all the fun your videos gave me in the past year and probably will give me in the future too. From a very stormy and wet Northern part of Germany, we here wish you and your little family a great and peacefull X-Mass and of course health, wealth and prosperity for the year to come.
I like Sketch-up, but good tutorials are so hard to find. I have referenced the first 4 vids in this series many times. These latest two vids make great additions. Thanks for some of the best Sketch-up tutorials on the web. By the way, will you be doing videos two days per week from now on? Would be fantastic, love your vids.
Hi Matthias, I can see where you're going with this but I fund it more difficult to take in than your other brilliant Sketchup tutorials. Maybe it was the lateness of the hour, but it could also have been because this one is so much more abstract than the others. In contrast, the ones with the table were a lot clearer because you used a simple object to illustrate it all, which makes it easy to wrap one's head around it. (Also the table was very close to the design problem I myself was trying to solve with Sketchup at the time ;-) Long story short, do you think you could do this over again with a *real* design of yours, with real parts cropping up instead of Objects 1 through 4?
Matthias, I have not explored Sketchup to date because of the impression that one must buy the $500 version to import and export 2D plans in .dxf format. Am I wrong about this, or is there a reasonable workaround? John
I think there is a rumour it was a play on FUBAR, which means F.. Up Beyond All Recognition. FUBAR, SNAFU and such are defined and explained on wikipedia. I found it an interesting history lesson. :)
Random question, why are foo and bar always used in sample computer work, especially for computer code when demonstrating methods and variables and the like?
A hand saw is suitable to cut wood...but most of us prefer the table saw. SketchUp is suitable to design a car...but most of us would prefer SolidWorks or CATIA
Regarding inheritance, it seems fair to say that colouring an object you've clicked into edits the properties of that object *series*, whereas colouring an object you /aren't/ clicked into merely edits that object *instance*.
id have to say auto cad would be better for a car yet sketchup would be inheritently powerful enough if your computer can take it and you were knowagable enough to do it
Many programmer use foo and bar as generic placeholders. These may have come from association between early expensive computers (and the programmers necessary to run them) and the government and military (who could afford them), as FUBAR was a military acronym long before '80's cop shows. The use of foo and bar, without the attached meaning of FUBAR, was spread in the 60's through various official computer publications.
Pario I never heard (or stated) that FUBAR was of computer origin. If you'll read my comment again, it states that FUBAR was originally a military acronym. Please pay attention to what you're commenting on.
I suspect many hobbyists can't afford Solid Works and don't need all the power it has. For me to buy Solid Works is like buying a semi and driving it to the grocery store, work, school. Not the best use of resources.
Dude, get back in the studio and stop ragging on people. Tell you what, let's have a link to your sound cloud account so we can all needlessly criticise all that work you've produced with your 5 grand's worth of mics and your protools rig. Come one now....

These tutorials are terrific

Hah! I've always wondered that myself =) Thank you for providing an answer to yet another of life's little questions Matthias.
Agreed. The question was "Do you think Sketchup is suitable for very large projects?" My answer was "SketchUp is suitable to design a car" Then he asked how it would compare to using a full blown autocad for large projects and I made an analogy. Have a good day!
The explanation is in the video. Do you colour the instance of the object, or do you go inside and colour the object. That's the difference.
Thanks very much for this and other tutorials you've created. I find your examples well presented compared to some other people's Sketchup tutorials.
Very useful and thorough. A lot of this can be intuited fairly easily, but it's not something you would likely get around to thinking about. Now my toolbelt is a little bit bigger. Thanks!

what other cad software do you use ?
Random question, why are foo and bar always used in sample computer work, especially for computer code when demonstrating methods and variables and the like?
Matthias, do you use the "pro" version or the free version?
OMG you had me at hello :)

yes
+Matthias Wandel rad, your tutorial vids are the best sketchup ones I've found
Speaking of programming, I can sense your desire for object inheritance in SketchUp. Maybe one day...
Ahh, I always wondered if it was something simple like that or if it was somehow connected to the WWII phrase FUBAR.
id have to say auto cad would be better for a car yet sketchup would be inheritently powerful enough if your computer can take it and you were knowagable enough to do it
I love your tutorials on thjis and the band saw. But was that a subtle Tango and Cash joke. Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition? Pls reply

they are short and easy to pronounce, with no inherent meaning.

foobar = FUBAR = Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition.
foo, bar -> foobar -> FUBAR -> Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition
it is joke. Foo and bar together are Foobar which is a phonetic variation of Fubar which is a well known acronym.

You should fix the hissing of S sounds in the audio before posting. It's really annoying to listen to. :(
