I've been playing around with SU for a while and getting nowhere. Your super clear explanation of the basics has me doing way more than before in a much shorter time. Thank you!
I'm a 71 year old grandma of 5 who has been using Fusion 360 for the last year for free for 3D printing and have got on really well for the simple projects I have done. However, being a law abiding citizen, I would feel guilty if I used a different name etc to sign up for another free year and I certainly can't afford a paid subscription. So I've been looking for another free software package to produce 3d models for 3D printing. This is the first tutorial I have come across which has simple, easy to understand instructions. I have learnt more in this tutorial than in all the others I've looked at. Thank you so much. I'll keep viewing.
to create simple structures, a better solution than "Sketchup" is 3D. "Design Spark Mechanical" is an even better program than "Fusion 360" and it is a free program.
Note: Simple shortcuts for Sketch up. Rotate: Q Erase: E Rectagle: R Tape Measure: T Push/Pull: P 2 Point Arc: A Scale: S Offset: F Axes: G Line: L Circle: C Paint: B Move/Rotate: M *sketch up will list (SHIFT)(CTRL)&(ALT) shortcuts with selected tool in the bottom bar opposite of the measurements box. Edit: Thank you for the great tutorials
Hi Justin! I just wanted to drop a line to let you know that I appreciate your tutorials. In just this first video, I'm already feeling more confident with the software so far. I'm gearing up for a number of DIY projects so Sketchup will be a tremendous aid in helping me to master the design process. Thank you for sharing your time and expertise with us. Definitely looking forward to supporting your content and learning more. Much success to you!
I've been trying to build a basic solid room in Blender for two days now. I learned how to do this in free sketchup simultaneously in another screen in real time before this 22 min video ended. Thank you so much! This gives me hope. lol

Thanks so much for this - just downloaded as I want to model a house we're going to build, and had no idea where to start. The tutorial is clear and concise, easy to follow and very interesting. Going to watch lesson 2 on drawing a basic house right now!
@@danielmontoya4636 Hello Daniel, If you're still working on this, I can help. I design house plans in SoftPlan. I can handle all aspects of your design process including lot grade, site plan, 3D elevations, etc... Let me know if I can be of assistance.
Hello. Thanks for this, but mine is different from yours. There are no arrows on the tools so you can't spin out tool options. How would I get the arrows to appear on the tools? Thanks
Thank you for making a really descriptive, simple and very clear Tutorial. This is my first time using Sketch up and I can do the basic drawing with your video. Keep inspiring! you are good.
Good job young man. Although I was a designer 1972-1988 I never learned AutoCAD, Today at 80 I'm just having fun with simple designs that are easily done with SketchUp. Thanks Again.
This is by far the most helpful sketchup tutorial I've found. If I have a model I've imported from the warehouse, how do I select the entire model and scale it down to shrink it?
Hey! Learned to use sketchup today using your tutorials. They were great because I got pretty far but there were some things I missed. Like how to navigate trough the workspace, I had no clue the first 30 minutes. Also had to search in another video how to change dimensions as I'm from Europe. Also took me like 15 minutes to realize i was using comma's instead of points no surprise the sices were invalid :p! There is also one thing that seems buggy to me. Sometimes all of the shortcuts don't work anymore so you have to point and click. Then all of a sudden they magically work again, still a lost soul bout that one. Anyway thanks a lot this part 1 and part 2 really helped!
I've been using the time limited version of SketchUp for a few weeks, and just tried getting to grips with the online version for when the 40 days expires. An interesting feature in the online version is automatically making model Revisions at every save point. Shame this is missing in the desktop version. Though a bit of a nuisance not being able to directly save on a local drive.
I have tried to figure out SU Free several times, each time giving up in considerable frustration. This has really helped. Looking forward to the next one.
Coming from a Maya background, a lot of this was known to me but I appreciate your pacing and explanations of the inference snapping. Very helpful video for new 3D artists
I have not started sketchup yet, I thought I'd watch a few tutorials first. Yours is one of the better ones Ive seen, so thanks for that. One question: are you using a mouse or a trackpad? I ask because some other tutorials recommend a mouse. Problem with that is (a) not great for the wrist and (b) cant use your laptop on your lap; need a table. That's why mice became obsolete in the first place. Whats your recommendation?
That's it, finally! Thank you so so so much, I found this video and your channel and helped a lot to not pulling all of my hair out whilst practicing with my Sketchup Design Project 👍🏼🙏🏼
This has helped massively in getting me started, 1 question that might be ahead of the tutorials but i want to know this is going to work before investing too much time and then having to stop. I fabricate a lot of things from box section steel, can i have layers so i can see the front back etc separately and then create cutting list from the design? Also applies to woodworking, i want to design and make a custom racking system for my garage, can i make a cut sheet from the design. Thanks
Thank you for this video. I've been trying to follow how to use Sketch Up off and on for the past several years. I learned how to use drafting software back in the days of Windows 98 and 2000 while in High School. I was pretty proficient and helped draft up several farm buildings. The modern software is so overwhelming and frankly too expensive for the limited use I need today. I just want to build some furniture items and put together cut sheets like so many RUclipsrs seem to be doing today. Your tutorial was to the current version and that is very helpful, too many of them are back from when SketchUp was a standalone company or when it was operated by Google. Now that Trimble owns the rights, it is even more different. I kinda wish I could afford the installation version, as the browser version is a little finicky. But, it is worth it to try out.
GM, I am new to sketch up. Thank you for explaining the introduction. I will definitely watch all your videos. you explain everything very well better than most of the RUclips videos that I have seen. Quick question I have a shaper origin. Am I able to download sketch up files to an SVG file? Thanks, Have a great week!!
Thank you so so much! I needed this type of tutorial to start with this program! I had seen others before but they didn't take enough time to show what the basic features did and I gave up trying to do anything. This was so clear and loved the fact that I could do everything while you were explaining! Awesome video ❤!
I just found this software. I've challenged myself to create ONE thing on my 3d printer rather than just pull stuff others created. I was fumbling hard with getting it to do anything. Watching this one video and I can suddenly create an object. Not printing just yet. I have a box with beveled edges and holes in it. But frankly I couldn't be happier. I can see where this is going. GREAT video, patient instructor. Good stuff, brother.
"click only once, then put your fingers on the keyboard and type the measurements"--that is what I came looking for. But what you didn't say is this: "Now that you have typed the measurements you want, CLICK THE MOUSE. Hitting the "enter" key will not do anything at all. Just be careful not to move the mouse as you click it, so you don't shift the measurements." (Coming from InDesign, this is a really hard program to wrap my head around.)
thank you so much. I was sick for a school lesson once where we got introduced to sketch up and now i no how to use it i am in a better position to finish my assignment!!! tytytyty xoxoxo
I am having trouble with my SU shop. When I create a triangle the final size is different than what U thought I was making. I might make something that is 2,2 but when I measure with T it comes out to be 13561 1/8 by 15463 7/8 or so. So what's with that? This metric looking size just happened out of. nowhere and I can't seem. to change it back This has never acted this way before only now and all of a sudden.Thanks for any Help
Hi Justin, What should I charge for this job? I just got my first job. It’s modeling n rendering a balcony (10’x12’) that’ll be converted into indoor space. What should I charge for the job?
Great video and tutorial. I have a question, I have a 1950's Texaco Garage Plan 1:43 Scale that I bought and I am wondering is it possible to bring it into Sketchup as it is in a PDF file, then manipulate it so that it would be a full drawing then save it to or export it to a program or with in this program - (not sure) so that it could become an STL file with the ability to print it on my Resin Printer. Or do you know of a service that can do this. The plan is on 8.5 x 11 and is 9 pages. Look forward to finding out if there is anything that can be done. Blessings Pastor Randy Bourque
I watch Justen geis tutorial for beginners , witch i liked very much . but my problem is i want to draw in mm or for you in inches, I try it in this tutorial then it is to small, I want to draw a box 280mm x 380mm x40 H with a partision in the middle. Can you help me please, thank you. Gerhard Valentin.
Are Tool Name Fly Outs still available in free sketchup 2023? No amount of hovering, right-clicking etc seem to help. Plus the default left-hand toolset doesn't match with this tutorial.
GOOD GOD thank you sir!. I just need to make a coffee table with one side that a few unique angles. And I actually consider myself to be fairly computer savvy, but dayuum i could not figure this out. I couldn't even figure out how to adjust the length of the lines i was drawing. Even WITH the notes at the bottom of the screen.
Hi - although your tutorals are really great - I began to fall in love with it untill I wanted to download my project as a mesh file and found that in order to do it although the online program was free the cheapest way to upgrade was $116 USD - which is waaaay out of my reach - It seems that if they really wanted to help out folks they'd have a lower price or at least make that price a lifetime price. My comment is --> Thanks, but NO THANKS!
Hello, thank you for the video. I need some advice using Sketchup Free. I have always had a few fonts available for 3D text but now all I can access is Open Sans Regular. Does anyone else have have the same issue? Thanks in advance.
How do you get rid of the woman? Seems dorky. My attempts to use this and plug in lengths doesn't work. I find all the icons tedious and cumbersome. All I really want to do to start is draw 2D stud walls to provide new window placement and framing diagram, an elevation view. Then tie together in floor plans. I can worry about 3D later. Anyone know how Cedreo compares? Thanks.
Wonderful start! Ty so much. Will try a few of things...watch again and keep going until I master the first steps! ; D I've have avoided starting this for months lol now the bell has tolled for rme. : D
Great video, I am interested in modeling a room (mainly all 4 stud walls) Would SketchUp help me determine how many studs I would need based on my room dimensions? I am just starting to learn the program!!!!!
elaborate but crystal clear thanks dude, I have a question im learing Sketchup as a process engineer for my resume, what do you suggest ? I have heard sth 3skeng, would you recommend it or anything else ? ( basics would be enough for me i reckon)
Love this series, wish it was updated as SketchUp Free online has changed ALOT since this video was made making it very difficult to follow along with these videos now.
It's been a couple of months since I used Sketchup free to create and save my house project now I can find where my projects have gone. The SU Help suggests there is a cloud button on the home screen but I can't find this. Any advice on retrieving your projects?
Quick question. When I use the line tool ...... I left click to start line then move my mouse to create line. Then I left click again to finish line. However the line draw function still will not turn off and everywhere I move curser the line still follows. I know it has to be something simple that I'm not seeing. Advice?
Great videos! However, I get a little confused when you say the blue plane is the flat plane and the red plane is the vertical plane. But looking at screen, blue is vertical to me, red is flat and green is the "depth" plane as I call it. Have I got this wrong? Thanks!!
My goal here is to make multiple diagrams of the planet Earth, our solar system and the dynamo that the Sun uses that provides energy to each and every planet and body in our solar system. It's in my head and I'm hoping I can use this software as a tool for my peer reviewed paper. Any suggestions will be much appreciated, even better software for conveying my message in a way almost anyone can understand. #TheElectricUniverseTheory
Hi, I am still confused about how to create a 3d Hemisphere. I have tried to use the push-pull and to make angles etc. as you said, but I cannot get it to work for me. How do I do this?
hi, is there any cad program that uses single continuos line for circles?? not segments like sketchup, i really hate this, specially when you need to start doing tubes and intersect them, it always creates so many problems, blank gaps, erros, bugsplats etc, any cad program without this stupid way to do circles?? thanks
I was following a tutorial for Mario 64 rom hacking and was stumped at a certain point. The part where drawing on another shape and using the push/pull tool erase part of it was exactly the fix I had to find.
sir, u life is spend for human being which are not think for profit, when a good persons died many people are crying and shock them,tension meanwhile, bad person died many people laugh at him/her, u are good person and life for others, may God in heaven will bless u for longlive witrh many blessing,
No matter how many turorials i watch i can not use this program to my advantage. Just trying to do what you say as far as drawing a line and adding the measurements does not happen. I can never type in the measurements box. Not to mention the view i want is the outside of a simple, square front of a 2 story building. The view of the inside corner of a room with a woman standing in it is bothersome. I want to do what i consider a most basic thing.. Seriously frustrating

How do you get rid of the woman? Seems dorky. My attempts to use this and plug in lengths doesn't work. I find all the icons tedious and cumbersome. All I really want to do to start is draw 2D stud walls to provide new window placement and framing diagram, an elevation view. Then tie together in floor plans. I can worry about 3D later. Anyone know how Cedreo compares? Thanks.
Wonderful start! Ty so much. Will try a few of things...watch again and keep going until I master the first steps! ; D I've have avoided starting this for months lol now the bell has tolled for rme. : D
Great video, I am interested in modeling a room (mainly all 4 stud walls) Would SketchUp help me determine how many studs I would need based on my room dimensions? I am just starting to learn the program!!!!!
elaborate but crystal clear thanks dude,
I have a question im learing Sketchup as a process engineer for my resume, what do you suggest ?
I have heard sth 3skeng, would you recommend it or anything else ?
( basics would be enough for me i reckon)
Love this series, wish it was updated as SketchUp Free online has changed ALOT since this video was made making it very difficult to follow along with these videos now.
It's been a couple of months since I used Sketchup free to create and save my house project now I can find where my projects have gone. The SU Help suggests there is a cloud button on the home screen but I can't find this. Any advice on retrieving your projects?

Quick question. When I use the line tool ...... I left click to start line then move my mouse to create line. Then I left click again to finish line. However the line draw function still will not turn off and everywhere I move curser the line still follows. I know it has to be something simple that I'm not seeing. Advice?
Great videos! However, I get a little confused when you say the blue plane is the flat plane and the red plane is the vertical plane. But looking at screen, blue is vertical to me, red is flat and green is the "depth" plane as I call it. Have I got this wrong? Thanks!!
Superb startup video for noobs. Thanks.
My goal here is to make multiple diagrams of the planet Earth, our solar system and the dynamo that the Sun uses that provides energy to each and every planet and body in our solar system. It's in my head and I'm hoping I can use this software as a tool for my peer reviewed paper. Any suggestions will be much appreciated, even better software for conveying my message in a way almost anyone can understand. #TheElectricUniverseTheory
I have the free 2017 version. I don't have that toolbar on the leftside. Anyway to get it? Tyvm.....
thanks!
Hi, I am still confused about how to create a 3d Hemisphere. I have tried to use the push-pull and to make angles etc. as you said, but I cannot get it to work for me. How do I do this?
hi, is there any cad program that uses single continuos line for circles?? not segments like sketchup, i really hate this, specially when you need to start doing tubes and intersect them, it always creates so many problems, blank gaps, erros, bugsplats etc, any cad program without this stupid way to do circles?? thanks
I was following a tutorial for Mario 64 rom hacking and was stumped at a certain point. The part where drawing on another shape and using the push/pull tool erase part of it was exactly the fix I had to find.
Good

Whos here from SLA-MS
Thank god for that line tool
No matter how many turorials i watch i can not use this program to my advantage. Just trying to do what you say as far as drawing a line and adding the measurements does not happen. I can never type in the measurements box.
Not to mention the view i want is the outside of a simple, square front of a 2 story building. The view of the inside corner of a room with a woman standing in it is bothersome.
I want to do what i consider a most basic thing..
Seriously frustrating
