[@rotkangcharlesdimka8672]

Thank you very much Mr. Justin. Your tutorial have been very helpful to me personally.

[@tamliheng3550]

Finally I found it. Thank you very much.

good work, I like the component report ,handy.

[@Thesketchupessentials]

It's one of my favorite features of this extension! Thanks for watching!

[@johnjuhl3121]

Great for understanding the basics - and just what I needed, Thanks !

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Awesome - glad it helped!

[@WhidbeyOne011]

Great video. Very helpful as I am trying to design an ICF wall structure. Thanks

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Awesome - glad you liked it!

[@colintranter5162]

A very interesting plug-in, thanks for showing us more about it. 😊

[@Thesketchupessentials]

No problem Colin - thanks for watching!

Are there any tips for building walls made out of reinforced concrete or reinforced cinder blocks? The reason I ask is because we don’t use would frame in the Philippines. We use cement and cinder blocks or reinforced concrete for the main structure. We also use steel beams for the roofing. If there are any extensions for those or tips to simulate those, that would be so cool!! Thanks for any help.

Great videos, thanks!

Thanks Dave!

Thank you, Justin, can you make a video showing how to turn any 3D object to an" automatic- cut component" to any wall, like doors and windows?

[@Thesketchupessentials]

I'll add that to the list! Thanks for watching!

I've seen that one already, it uncovers a few neat features controlled in the Component box/window. November/2018

Thanks for this video Jason, will it do complex profiles like a privacy fence with lattice on the top with posts? I thought that I saw this somewhere.

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Hi Steve - I'm having trouble visualizing what you're talking about, but generally it's a pretty flexible extension. Thanks for watching!

[@2mdallas]

Excellent video, thanks Jason, I subscribed. I have the same request as below, turning a 3D object into a cut component would be great. Thanks again.

[@Thesketchupessentials]

I'll add this to my list of videos to make - thanks! In addition, the creator of profile builder just released an extension that cuts through double sided walls - mindsightstudios.com/double-cut/ - I haven't had a chance to try it yet. Thanks for watching!

[@2mdallas]

I'll give it a shot now, thanks Jason...

I'm trying to imagine who would find this plug-in a "time-saver". Firms with lots of work I guess. For myself, who takes a year to design one house, this brings redundant control, over things that need less control, as codes change and requirements are upgraded. Drainage is always a critical consideration, to the extent that every 'house' has it's own design considerations. You have to know the site, the ground, the Heat Zone, the rainfall, the local infrastructure and more before deciding how to manage the footing/foundation/drainage problem. In the course of designing a house, it will likely be modified, or even deleted and re-started. Would you then have to edit it, using this plug-in, rather than regular Sketchup tools?

[@kudamidzi1254]

Can you now add rebar to foundation concrete

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Sure - just add it as a profile in the Assembly

@@Thesketchupessentials thanks, your tutorials are great.
