How to produce Google Sketchup designs with pinpoint measurements

In the first part of this workshop on 3D drawing we created simple freehand drawings that incorporated unusual shapes, different textures and realistic shadows.

Now in part 2, we’re going to explore some of Sketchup’s precision measuring tools, and explain how to create shapes with accurate dimensions that can be used to build something in the real world.

We’ll also look at some of Sketchup’s quick editing features for grouping objects so as to make it easier to move and copy them, as well as change the scale of the entire drawing with a couple of mouse clicks.
