After a hectic few weeks
SketchUcation got suited and
booted! We spent the last 9
months secretly rebuilding
the site from the ground up to
give members something more
than a forum.
But the surprises do not stop
there. We have all manner of
goodies to reveal in the coming
months and we are super
excited about SketchUation’s
future. More about that later.
It’s business as usual in this
edition. More of the same with
reviews, previews and tip ‘n’
tricks.
Enjoy! See you at Basecamp!

Massimo Siracusa
Joining curved surfaces to flat surfaces
Italian architect and forum regular Massimo
Siracusa shares a technique he used while
modeling this hans Wegner Oak sideboard.
To accomplish this you will need Fredo’s
CurviLoft plugin and RoundCorner plugin and be
familiar with SketchUp’s arraying modifiers.
The process uses CurviLoft’s ‘Loft By Spline’
tool with the ‘Spline Method’ set to ‘Junction
by Orthogonal Eliptical Curves’.
www.sketchUcation.com 4
here you can see the issue we
have. We need to bridge from
the curved leg to the flat face.
What increases the complexity
in this process is when we add
bevels to the flat face.
Luckily Curivloft makes this a
3 click operation.
Firstly, move a copy of the top
curve downwards and draw a
line across the flat face. This is
to locate the start and end point
of the transition.
www.sketchUcation.com 5
Now select the 2 outer
edges on the flat face and use
RoundCorner to set the bevel
distance and segment number.
In this example I used a
segment count of 4 but you can
use whatever is needed.
Draw edges as shown here
to isolate this area from the
remainder of the model.
Select the area marked in
orange and group it. By grouping
you effectively cut the geometry
from the surrounging area but
leave the perimeter edge intact.
www.sketchUcation.com 6
Delete the group to be left with
only the perimeter edges. It is in
this area that the bridging will
occur.
Select the edges as shown
here. These are the melding
profiles we need for the lofting
procedure.
Make sure you have all of both
profiles selected before con-
tinuing.
www.sketchUcation.com 7
Using the first icon on
CurviLoft we will loft between
the profiles.
Ensure the ‘Junction be
Orthogonal Eliptical
Curves’ method is selected.
Commit the result and
imediately explode the resulting
group to intersect it with the
surrounding area.
Now simply draw an edge
to fill the hole and remove any
unwanted geometry.
A very difficult task made
simple with CurviLoft.
www.sketchUcation.com 8
I used this technique extensively
during the modeling of this hans
Wegner piece. There were lots of
areas that needed complex geometry
and without CurviLoft it would have
proved to be a very time consuming
task.
hope you enjoyed this little
tutorial.

Artisan v1.2 - What’s new?
Late last month Dale Martens released an update to SketchUp’s only sculpting tool - Artisan. What’s
really impressive about this update is the number of new and improved features that have been
addressed. For those that are not familiar with Artisan it is an organic modeling toolset which was
reviewed in CatchUp Edition 1.
What is immediately obvious is the speed improvement. Sculpting now occurs much quicker than
in the previous version which had a tendency to lag on dense meshes. It now absolutely blasts through
meshes where it previously struggled. There is also a new feature to the sculpting brush called ‘Aut-
Smooth’ that performs a smoothing operation to your sculpted area on release of the mouse. Below
you can see the difference between a sculpt with Auto-Smooth off (left) and Auto-smooth on (right).
you can now use the ShIFT key while in Sculpt mode to constrain the direction vertically while
sculpting and while in Flatten mode the the SHIFT key will constrain the flattening operation hori-
zontally. Both of these are key features that add another level of control and increase prductivity time.
In the previous release sculpting and flattening always occured towards the face you were hovering
over.
“It now absolutely blasts through meshes”
www.sketchUcation.com 10
A brand new tool to Artisan v1.2 is the Vertex Scale tool. If you are already using Thomas Thomas-
sen’s vertex Tools then you know what a great addition this is in Artisan. Is there a difference? Not
really, but there is no harm in being spoilt for choice. What has changed is significantly is the workflow.
In this update you no longer need to pre-select any geometry prior to activating any of Artisan’s vertex
related tools. you simply click and set the distance and you can move, rotate and scale as needed.
Some other trickery that has been added to both the Smooth and Flatten modes is you can now
control the strength similar to sculpting mode. The added bonus is that negative strength value in
Smooth mode creates a jitter effect (right) and in Flatten mode it applies sharp peaks and valleys (left).
www.sketchUcation.com 11
“. . .sculpt, flatten and smooth to get perfect results. . .”
Finally, the Crease tool got some added functionality. previously if you wanted to crease an area
you had to manually pick each vertex and edge that needed to be locked into position. Now there is
a really quick method accessed from the Tools menu called Crease Selection. What this means is
you can now define an area that you need to work on with the Select Brush, group it and then pick
from various creasing options. Below you can see how this can be used to great effect when you need
to grade terrain. Because the outer most edges are locked to the surrounding terrain you can sculpt,
flatten and smooth knowing you will get the perfect results.
Overall, these latest additions strengthen Artisan’s
already powerful toolset. The productivity time is now
much higher and the new strength controls for Smooth
and Flatten give you much more precision. It is worth
checking the youTube video that showcases all these
new features and downloading the trial to give it a try!
As an added bonus Artisan is now discounted by 25% to only $29 for a limited time.

Slingshot
This month’s gadget, for a change, can be used with quite a number of
smartphones, not just the iPhone. I first noticed the Slingshot on kickstarter
and quickly pledged my $14 as I thought Charles Waugh was definitely onto
something that was not already on the market. The Slingshot is a well thought
out and clever design that does three jobs, it acts as a stabiliser, a handy tripod and a
steady viewer stand. It’s lightweight and fits easily into a pouch or even a largish
coat pocket.
I received my Slingshot a few days ago and have been using it on a regular basis and I will continue
to do so for quite some time as the construction is much better than I had expected at the selling price.
The Slingshot is made from acetal resin, which is a super-tough material, that can bend and stretch
enough to accommodate the iPhone easily or even the much larger Galaxy models. The top
cradle holds the phone and this screws into the handle. It can also be screwed into a standard tripod
mount. The cradle can be twisted on a ball joint and set to a suitable angle for hand-held shooting
of pictures or videos, also the user can flip out a pair of vestigial legs to turn the device into a mini
tabletop tripod which is quite stable even with the phone at a 45 degree plus angle.
It is possible to have your iphone connected to the dock cable while using the Slingshot as the cradle
sides are open, quite useful when using the device for steaming vedeos and such. I can
highly recommend the Slingshot, even at its current $19.95. I have only one
quibble. It only accommodates the iphone or other device in a landscape mode.
I contacted the inventor during the kickstarter phase and suggested that he
consider adapting the Slingshot to hold phones in both portrait and landscape
and he thought it was a good idea but I imagine he
was too far advanced with production to modify
the design. Maybe Slingshot v2 will do this!

A “New home” – SketchUcation 2.0 is out!
. . . .out with the old. . .
All those who became members of SketchUca-
tion in 2007 – when google closed the “old” @
Last forums - can remember the beginnings. A
phpBB forum software which was in “Beta” at the
time and later not compatible with the official
Release Candidate. A friendly atmosphere
where the initial members were trying to revive
something of the defunct @Last forums while
also seeking a “New home”. This was the birth of
the “SketchUcation Community” that carried
on the original “SketchUp Community” and
still strives to do so after five years.
Since then, the SketchUcation Community
has grown up – and grown big. We had the first
1,000 members in the first three months – now
we have another 1,000 members about every
5 days! The whole forums and the “site” did
not change much “technically” during the years
though. We had started a “News” section, an ATC
programme, some Book Sales but the overall
feeling and the technical solutions were still just
like at the beginning.
. . .in with the new. . . .
Now the time has arrived to renew every-
thing. We decided to step ahead, organize what
knowledge, shared materials and content that
have accumulated on the forums and integrate it
into a brand new CMS site (powered by Joomla)
and a completely revamped community forum.
www.sketchUcation.com 16
The work effectively started in February (prior
to the “Trimble announcement”) and our initial
goals – upgrading the forums to the latest, most
modern and secure release, updating our old
forum template to be able to handle all the new
features in the latest phpBB release – and last
but not least, develop a site where these forums
and membership can be integrated – were soon
accomplished. Nevertheless we became more
“adventurous” during the process and wanted
to create some stunning, new features that can
ensure the ongoing, long term functionality and
allow constant development of SketchUcation as
well as allow members to be much more involved
in content development.
The forums now also boast several new
features:
➙ Multiple attachment uploading
➙ new, richer post editor (e.g. easier video embedding)
➙ “solved topic” marking
➙ light-box integration for images both attached and externally embedded
➙ “quick reply” without reloading the page for a short, unformatted reply
➙ easier and faster post moderation of newly registered members
➙ who knows what else have been added and broken functions fixed.
The “Community” feature has been extended
to the content management system, too. As a
first step, we have added a Community gallery
showcasing the most stunning images posted on
the forums – we shall constantly add both older
submissions and newer gems. For Community
development, we also started to work on a new
“Networking” system but this is still behind the
curtains. Be prepared however and watch our
news blog to be informed about it.
Our Resources section will also grow in time.
We have already “migrated” some tutorials from
the forums into an easy to browse section and
are working on a system where external authors
(our most knowledgeable members) can also
add their own tutorials extremely easily and
quickly – all “html formatting” made automatic.
Of course, we still have a lot to develop under
“Resources” – collecting, organizing, sharing,
maintaining, updating all valuable data from the
forums as well as from all over the Internet. This
work will never finish but hopefully grow into
an unbeatable collection.
www.sketchUcation.com 17
There is one area or our “Resources” that has
not yet changed: we still use our “old” list of
plugins in a forum sticky topic (thanks to Jim
Foltz for maintaining it). This will also change
– the upcoming BaseCamp will allow us to talk
to some of our most active plugin authors and
“brainstorm” some ideas on the functionality
and features of a complete Plugin Index
of all related SketchUp plugins. By the time
you are reading this article, we may well have
laid down the basic guide lines we are going to
work on.
There are two more, major, new features on the
site: Premium membership and our brand
new Shop where our members can sell (or freely
distribute) their creations. This was the most
sensitive goal we set ourselves. SketchUcation’s
vibrant growing community is the backbone of
what makes the place special. We were never
going to compromise that.
What we set out to create is a new ecosystem of
content delivery that’s 100% SketchUp related.
We also wanted to attract the very best SketchUp
users so members can immediately know they
are getting only the best quality. It started last
year with our trial site - books.sketchucation.com
- and slowly evolved from there. It soon became
apparent that SketchUcation members love to
learn from expert users. We were inundated with
requests to grow the store and we have!
We took some time and built a framework
that delivered the great content from talented
SketchUp users at incredible value for members.
you can find out about the benefits of Premium
membership on our new site and see why it is an
exciting new direction for SketchUcation.
premium membership is essentially a means
of professionals accessing the best content,
the best support and the best resources whilst
availing of 20% discounts on everything. We are
also working to get 3rd party plugin developers
involved so premium members can get those
upcoming goodies at the lowest prices around.
www.sketchUcation.com 18
If you browse the store you will
see the type of content members are
currently offering. From Oli Shea’s
stunning hDRI pack and Tree Line
pack to Alvydas Litvinas’ incredible
furniture collection.
We’ve also partnered with Massimo
Siracusa and David hier, two leading
SketchUp 3D artists, to provide ex-
ceptional SketchUp Models and Dave
Richards is the master of SketchUp
Styles.
you can click any of the opposite
images to see the kind of content that
is available. If you are interested in
finding out more about the store you
can contact us for details.
This is a radical change for SketchU-
cation but one we are excited about.
So thank you to all the members that
helped out over the last few months your
input and direction was invaluable.
yours,
SketchUcation Team

keyframe Animation 1.8 - What’s New?
When it comes to animating objects in SketchUp nothing comes close to keyFrame Animation.
It was reviewed in CatchUp Edition 4 and early last month Regular polygon quietly pushed out an
update with a significant new feature - you can now animate an objects size!
Simply put, any change in the scale of an object will now be interpolated between key frames. This
means the scaling can be uniform, or non-uniform and you are able to combine a translation and a
scaling, so that an object moves and changes size at the same time.
Rotations and scaling can also be combined if you rotate and scale about the same point. This allows
for a myriad of different animations to now be exported directly from SketchUp using KeyFrame Ani-
mation’s Tweens tools. Watch this check test below which shows the various animations you can now
achieve with the new feature.
you can buy keyFrame Animation in our plugin Store and premium Members get a 20% discount.

ArchiDRAW - preview
I’ve been on the lookout for a versatile drawing app for the ipad for some time. I’ve tried out quite a
few but none to date have stuck. The apps I have tried have been either too basic or over complicated
and tiring to use. Maybe I expect all drawing apps to be fun because of what SketchUp delivers. This
may however be about to change with ArchiDraw from Orange Juice Studios
The app is not yet available but the web site reads well and teases with
some innovative drawing features that are to be part of ArchiDraw. We
are advised the application is being built on an OpenGL platform
that will fully harnesses the power of the ipad. The London based de-
velopment team, Vim, an Engineer and Az,an Architect, feel that
there will be no competition when it comes to performance!
I understand that what was originally intended as a floor plan app is
now being developed as a fully-fledged 2D CAD application. This
is due to the feedback the developers were receiving. I imagine once
they found themselves half way down the road they decided to go the
full mile!
www.sketchUcation.com 25
Some of the feature that interest me are:
The virtual Mouse! This is a patent pending input method that will eliminate the
problem of one’s finger getting in the way and will offer unprecedented accuracy
the developers tell us. While the developers advise that the app will have the ability
to export / import popular file formats, they currently only mention DXF. I
hope they shake-hands with SketchUp, however time will tell.
The ‘Free Draw’ feature sounds very interest. Seemingly the app will allow the user
to ‘scribe shapes’ with one’s digit and ArchiDraw will interpret these into geometric
shapes and walls! I’ve used this process in SmartSketch some years ago and liked the
process, very intuitive indeed. The application will also draw walls, windows and
doors parametrically, another plus!
The developers are also now providing video updates on YouTube. The first, ‘ArchiDraw the new
standard for CAD on the iPAD : Development Update 1’ can be seen below, just click.
I hope to be testing ArchiDraw shortly and will be advising of my experience on SketchUcation, so
stay tuned, it could well be the ‘missing link’, a powerful yet simple to use 2D CAD app that many of us
have been seeking for the ipad.

3D printer in every home
A 3D printer in every home! This would
appear to be the current business plan for many
3D printer manufactures. A few short years ago
this objective might have seemed optimistically
unrealistically but today it is very much on the
cards and I feel a personal 3D printer will be
as commonplace as a home computer and
multipurpose printer is presently.
When 3D printers became the buzz word a few
years ago we were looking at, out of price range
for many, high end commercial 3D printers
aimed at large architectural, engineering and
product design firms, costing tens of thousands
but today the story is quite different. We now are
seeing quite a range of DIy 3D printers coming
on the market from small startup firms and now
some of the larger players like, 3D Systems,
are getting in on the act with well built low cost
turn-key 3D printers like the WiFi Cube 3D
printer.
The competition is hotting up! The large man-
ufactures want to put a 3D printer in every home
but the obstacle is how to ‘sell the idea’ to people.
The key could be offering a concept. Manufac-
tures are showing people why they would want
a 3D printer and how they would actually put it
to productive use. 3D printers are able to make
all sorts of objects and the manufactures are
expanding the possibilities on a daily basis, but
the manufacturer needs to convince the
consumers that they need to have one in
their home.
Cubify is pioneering this approach offering
many different ways for the home user and their
kids to interact with their 3D printers. Cubify’s
Toy Robot templates is aimed at children, both
young and old.
www.sketchUcation.com 29
This idea reminds me of the story of the child
that got more of a kick out of playing with the
large cardboard box that the toy came in rather
than the actual toy! Imagination was sparked and
the large cardboard box became many things, a
car, a fire engine, a house. I think 3D printing of
toys for / with the child generates much the same
experience as they can easily customise the toys,
with Dad or Mom’s help of course initially ;-)
The way Cubify works this is by offering toy
templates with various colour options at
99 cents each. Once the set-ups are completed
the child watches the 3D printer create their
custom toy. The basic Cubify 3D printer package
includes all that is needed, $1299 for the Cube (3D
Printer) and $49 for Cubify Invent (application).
Once the template is purchased the users can
3D print as often as they wish using different
colours. Also there are many robots in the series
and the individual robot parts are interchange-
able. This allows for the child to use their imagi-
nation, most important, as this will lead to cre-
ativity and hopefully original designs over time.
I don’t have any young children these days to
encourage into 3D printing however I do have a
wife that collects shoes like they are going
out of fashion! I am now wondering if it would
be safe for me to have a 3D printer in the house
as it may well be commandeered for production
of 3D printed shoes! I have no idea how com-
fortable these shoes would be but they certainly
are eye-catching to say the least and they might
work out a lot cheaper than the designer shoes so
maybe the commandeering would not be so bad
after all ;-)
Not all 3D printed content is low cost. The
beautiful Lightnest light fitting by Freedom Of
Creation costing $599 is obviously in demand
also some of the high fashion items are fetching
reasonably high prices.
www.sketchUcation.com 30
Content like this is what will ‘sell the idea’ to
the home user and consumers in general both
young and old in order create a demand for the
home 3D printer. For those of us (readers of
CATCHUP) that know we can simply create a 3D
object using SketchUp and many other applica-
tions already are ‘up to speed’ with the process,
however in order for the average consumer
to ‘get it’, there needs to be databases of useful
objects that they can pick from and watch as these
objects materialise on their sideboards. Once the
concept is grasped by general consumers they
can move on to making their own objects, maybe
a required plastic part for a broken household
item etc etc. This could bring back the ‘fix it’
age that existed before the current ‘throw
away’ age we currently live in, no bad thing! At
this stage the personal household 3D printer will
quickly become a standard commonplace item.
Cubify obviously is aiming to create a 3D
printing industry around their products and their
group of Cubify Artists! They are encouraging
users to become Cubify Artists and the process
is quite straightforward. It simply involves
creating a standard account and once the first 3D
printable model is uploaded the user’s status is
changed to ‘Artist’. When you become an artist,
you can upload more 3D printable models for
royalty sharing. you can manage your uploads
and store / showcase your designs by using your
account dashboard.
Its free to become a Cubify Artist and you get
60% royalty on sales. There are no contracts to
sign, no fees to list products, and no monthly
or hosting fees of any kind. They have a good
anti-fraud system in place that protects your
creations at all times. After reaching certain
uploading and sales milestones, you earn Cubify
badges that will elevate your presence within the
Cubify community. If you load a STL 3D model
format, Cubify staff reviews your model and
works with you to get to a “3D printable” state.
Once that certification is achieved, your model
can be submitted by buyers to be 3D printed.
You then benefit from an additional 5% royalty
stream every time the model is submitted to
their 3D printing Service.
Yes indeed, as I said, I can definitely see a 3D
printing industry building up on Cubify and I
would not be surprised to see many SketchU-
cation members becoming some of its leading
Artists!
“. . .bring back the ‘fix-it’ age that existed before the ‘throw-away’ age. . .”

Construction models are built to communicate, manage, explain, and document the construction. As the model is assembled it is used to simulate sequences and think through different approaches in the production process, but once the model is complete, it becomes a visual resource for change order, process illustrations, and graphic explanations. This makes it impor-tant to be able to label and annotate images exported from the model to manage the construction.
