Jim's teardrop - google sketchup

[pohukai]

Here's my google sketchup design. At this time, my build is not complete, but it is almost as designed.

I will be making changes to the galley and interior rear cabinets.

Hi Jim,

I downloaded your sketchup of your trailer. Wow. That is amazing. I think it would take me more time to make the design than to build the trailer. I just started working with Sketchup today. I watched all the tutorial vids etc. but seeing a real live TD in this program is very helpful. I even noticed how the HF trailer is a separate group that is just fit into the project. Very cool. Do you have to use the PRO version to be able to make the visuals like you have on your post?

Thanks for putting this up on the web for us so that we can benefit from all of your hard work.

Joe,
I'm glad you could use the model. When I get a chance, I may update it with the actual build.

I used only the free version of sketchup. I'm not sure what else I would need that is only available in the pro.

This was the first project I used sketchup and there was a learning curve. It was well worth the time spent playing because I made lots of mistakes. Better to make them electronically that when cutting the wood.

Best wishes with your build!
