FreeScale 2.0a Beta

A few days ago a new plugin was released for SketchUp. It is called FreeScale 2.0a Beta. This is an amazing set of tools that greatly expands SketchUp's abilities. I think there is a lot of potential for woodworkers with this plugin. the following video clip demonstrates just two of the new tools. You can download the plugin here although you'll need to be registered to do so.

Happy Sketching Up er SketchUpping er Sketching Upping er, well, enjoy.

Dave

No worries about calling me David. My mother used to call me that, too. When she used my middle name I knew I was in trouble. :)

You are correct. The current version is f. To my knowledge, the only place to download it is from the first post in the thread I linked to on the Sketchucation forum. You will have to register there to be able to download it. That's not such a bad thing though.

Regards,

Dave

Dave, please watch the audio volume level on the above video clip! The level on my computer was very distorted and the volume varied in level a lot.

So when will we see your plugin?

joelh writes: Looks brilliant! He stole my thunder! I have been working on a Ruby script that first copies and makes unique a group of components, yet not making unique internally to the new group. then you click two point on a face on one of the components, input a dimension to expand the group of components (or vertices) parallel to the selected face and perpendicular to the two points. This allows one to resize drawers, stiled doors etc. in just a couple of mouse clicks. This is the same (I think) as this guy's stretch.
