This was the best "Get Started' Tutorial - its amazing how seeing results within minutes and feeling like you are using the tools make you want to keep learning more.
Love this format. It doesn’t assume the user already knows a bunch of the features of SketchUp, but at the same time it doesn’t beat you over the head with over explaining how to draw a line. Perfect for someone like me that’s figured out the very basic stuff and wants to start advancing a bit beyond just line drawings/floor plan stuff.
This was fantastics. You're really good at explaining this stuff. I've watched a bunch of Sketchup tutorials and I'd say this was the best. Keep it up! Please do more.
thanks! after being discouraged by advanced framing videos, this one is exactly what I needed. Now I can start my framing and learn on the way! you're excellent teacher.
Wow! Thank you! So calm, slow and helpful. Love how you explain each move. I haven't looked at the rest of your videos but am hoping you have many more!
New to Sketchup and have looked a lots of videos. This is the best by far! The fact you are using Sketchup vs. Sketchup Pro is very helpful. Also, simple explanations with clear movement of cursor. Great job!
brand new to this and found it very easy to follow you with the exception I'm not working on a Mac but figured out the different keys pretty quickly, going to follow your videos in the next few days need to draw up some pans for a project.
Very helpful. I couldn’t help but notice one low hanging fruit here, but… the quickest and easiest way to build that model after you deleated it is to simply hit the “undo” keyboard shortcut 😎👍
Absolutely amazing tutorial. Simple and to the point. You have a gift. I am in need of assistance. I want to build a 2 story shop/office space inside a metal building. I have a 30x60x18 metal building and want to build a 30x20x18 shop/office inside. Would you be available for hire?
Excellent job on this one. However the task of creating walls gets more complex as you start adding windows and doors and then your client wants to move or resize those openings in the wall. Using just SketchUp and it’s native tools can get very tedious as you would then need to remodel a bunch of the geometry. That is why I would strongly suggest using an extension to draw walls, you get the flexibility of SketchUp but you also get the parametric or editing ability which makes things so much more efficient.
Great tutorial, loved it. Especially your description of why the first and last distance between the studs are different. I have to do some framing with a door. Would be nice to have a tutorial on. Thanks again for a great tutorial I feel ready to get started and much more knowledgeable.
I love your videos as this is only day 2 with sketch-up for me. I am on a pc. I do not see the unique option on mine, nor can I seem to push a stud down from the top plate. It wants to pull out the side but not push down the stud to jack stud height... very frustrating
Another great tutorial. I would be interested to know how to add and show dimensions of a finished small project and or components to use in the workshop as a cutting sheet. Is this possible? Thanks.
This was helpful to me because I was starting today this program and it helps a lot thanks so much. if I can give you high five i would really love but thanks from the bottom of heart ❤️
just learning sketchup 2017. for each project i have a word document that i write the steps down. while watching these videos i use my temarkable 2 as i can annotate with drawings. yesterday, 9/13/24 i learned the FOLLOW ME command
Yes, this would be done with a tool called Layout. It's only available in the Pro version of Sketchup. Here's a video showing the process: ruclips.net/video/4tiuuTJwGRk/видео.htmlsi=vYrBeYSgH-l1Ieeg
Very well done, easy to comprehend, all 100% of it. And I agree with @ndamico, that this is the best/useful tutorial I've seen on Sketchup. And believe me, I've watched a bunch. Now subscribed and will look for more of your work. Thanks for taking the time to record this!
Someone may have already said this, but in Windows, you do not use “Alt” to make a copy, you would use “Ctrl”. Took me awhile to figure out why I couldn’t copy that stud! Otherwise, good tutorial
We're in 2023. Is there not a software that has pre-existing lumber mock ups? Also, there should be an auto function that allows the software to recommend structual design. This is crazy.
You can save components and reuse them with a click of a button. I don’t know what you mean by “recommend structural design” but there are very sophisticated softwares out there. This one happens to be easy to use and free.
its ctrl to move a copy of a stud over on my windows 10 laptop. took me awhile to finally figure that out. alt does some other function. at the bottom of the screen in sketchup. it says what alt and ctrl are doing.
Nice job explaining, however how come you did not make the slab a group instead of a component. I be looking for your next video. Thank you for sharing.
A great video for learning the basics of Sketchup @structuredesign. We built a plugin that automates all of what you did in the video and, it enables you to adjust slab and footing thickness. With framed walls you can parmatrically create and edit all wood framing, including junctions, top/ribbon plates, headers & sills etc infinite times in just 2 clicks. After the wall is drawn you can also add or delete doors & Windows after the wall is drawn. Reach out if you would like to see it. Again great work, keep them coming.
It's crazy that they don't have pre made boards that you can just rotate and configure any way you please. No reason we should have to make and paint them one by one.
You don’t have to make and paint them one by one, you only have to make one. You can not only copy it, but you can also save it as a component and always use it from your component list with the click of a button.

Thank you very much. I have been struggling with FreeCad and this looks much easier for this kind of drawing.

Great video, could you upload more videos on building houses and framing
the video was helpful for thecfew commands used. i overlooked the fact that the end walls top top plate would overlap the side walls lower top plate

Absolutely amazing tutorial. Simple and to the point. You have a gift.
I am in need of assistance. I want to build a 2 story shop/office space inside a metal building.

For anyone having a problem using ALT to copy a component, hit the CTRL key instead
Very nice!
Nice job on the video. I subscribed and I will definitely be back for more!
Thank you so much!
pretty cool. thanks.
This was helpful to me because I was starting today this program and it helps a lot thanks so much. if I can give you high five i would really love but thanks from the bottom of heart ❤️
Great. I can learn SketchUp and get the rust off my amateur carpentry skills (which includes simple furniture projects).
Great job, very informative.
Very good video, thank you a lot!
just learning sketchup 2017. for each project i have a word document that i write the steps down.
while watching these videos i use my temarkable 2 as i can annotate with drawings.
yesterday, 9/13/24 i learned the FOLLOW ME command
Awesome tutorial! Love that x8 trick. Is there any way to print that with dimensions on it?
Yes, this would be done with a tool called Layout. It's only available in the Pro version of Sketchup. Here's a video showing the process: ruclips.net/video/4tiuuTJwGRk/видео.htmlsi=vYrBeYSgH-l1Ieeg

YOU DESERVE SPONSORSHIP!!! BUT NOT FROM ME, I'M BROKE.

SketchUp does, but not the free version.
Thanks! Is it possible to do all this in the free version?
Yes!
How to change rect dimension after the rect has been drawn already?
its ctrl to move a copy of a stud over on my windows 10 laptop. took me awhile to finally figure that out. alt does some other function. at the bottom of the screen in sketchup. it says what alt and ctrl are doing.
Yes I’m on a Mac, had this wrong and corrected in the description. CTRL is the right key on Windows
How do I start ? Do I need an iPad ? Also the SketchUp does it take me right to this page to start designing?
You don't need an iPad, just a computer/laptop. Go to app.sketchup.com to find the free version
well done
Nice job explaining, however how come you did not make the slab a group instead of a component. I be looking for your next video. Thank you for sharing.
just curious? why would you want to make it a group?
Hello
Is there a way to print a list of materials based on the sketch Using the free version ?
As far as I know, this is only available in the Pro version.
@@CWebbTutorialsthank you!
thanks
I’m not seeing a free version of sketchup anymore? Which paid version do you need for this?
It's still free. Go to app.sketchup.com
which version of sketchup is this?
The free version
awesome

I'd like to know where to access that extension.
