Great article! How do you change the default so the back faces are green?

Re: What hand tools can't you live without?

Great looking tool chest. Adding Kaizen foam inside the drawers (and top section) would be a nice finishing touch. Available at Rockler or Amazon. It would keep everything from bouncing around and shifting when the chest is moved about. I have it in all my tool drawers so the items don't shift when the drawers move.

Re: Creating and Editing Tenon Peg Holes

Thanks for an excellent SketchUp woodworking video. I am an advanced SU modeler and learned about showing the center point of a circle, which I didn't know previously. Please continue making SU videos.
Here's a tip for you. (I don't get any finder's fee for saying this. I am just a happy user.) Check out the SpaceNavigator mouse at 3DConnexion.com. I could not help but notice the conventional way you moved around the model. This 3D mouse lets you fly around the model (with ease) like a humming bird. A fantastic tool for avid modelers, at about $100 (last I heard.) You can find a great review on it at
