I need to read more or something, I just noticed this topic yesterday
and spent a couple hours looking at comments and watching youtube
videos before I realized "Why dont I have this yet?"
Man this is cool! It takes a little getting used to but it is a sweet program for free!

I had a sketch of a dresser im wanting to build. So this morning I spent a couple hours with this program and it seemed to get easier the more I played with it. Did I mention "I love it"?

It appears that you have an extraordinary grasp of the program for 2 hours. nice work

Yep, and the more you dig in the more you find all kinds of nifty capabilities.

I had a little ACad in high school, but it was a 2D version. Eeee, was that 22 years ago?

And it was about 4 hours. I played with it last night a little

Nice work, indeed. That's a great dresser design.

Just started messing around with Sketchup, seen it as part of the forum but didn't know what it was. WOW!! My opinion--It is handier than a caster on a crutch. Got alot more experimenting to do. It kinda reminds me of MicroSoft Paint but with numbers.
