Live Modeling The Mandalorian's Helmet for 3D Printing in SketchUp

Are you a 3D printer? Well we have just the live model for you. We are live modeling The Mandalorian's Helmet for 3D Printing in SketchUp.

Great work there. I need to learn this balance between make it perfect and make it done. Need to keep reminding myself to be productive and leave my perfectionist aside.

[@AaronMakingStuff]

Nikita Dugin I know! I rally struggle with that!

Since I saw in another guy's tutorial about flattening points in a plane with Fredoscale, my life is much easier and happier. All the stuff you're going thru in 1:00:16 it's solved in a couple of clicks If you don't know what I mean, just grab all the "offending" lines/points, launch Fredo Box Scaling and it should be a pretty flat box, but not completely flat. Then grab the central point of the box and type 0. That'll put all of those lines/points in the same plane Oh, and with curviloft that happens a lot. Actually, with almost any surface in Sketchup that requires very small triangles, and that's what curviloft do to solve surfaces thru curves, throw a sh*tload of triangles that the Sketchup engine can't hold sometimes

You are ultimately great bro 👍👍💜❤💜❤️

[@Nata_Kurniawan]

i watched this and damn my will to do sketchup never been this fire before 🔥 keep up the good work my man

Solid Inspector 2 does a good job but sometimes misses things. Solid Inspector, the older version, finds the culprit 100% though doesn't fix the errors. I use both so, when SI2 doesn't fix the issue because can't find it, SI shows what's wrong to fix it manually

[@streamingjunkie4397]

Is there both a comprehensive and quick start tutorial on this channel for noobs? Also, is the trial version fully functional? Can I send floor plans to the printer?

[@austbob7161]

I can make a simple house and you can make a very detailed helmet. Nice

[@rulff]

What is the device connected to the computer that you are navigating in the program?

[@DarkAutumn3D]

GOOD OL' KAY-SEE!!!

Kinda missed the livestream yesterday, since, well, I'm on the other half of the Earth. But I've discovered a kinda non-destructive way to use Solid Tools without having to destroy a solid component. Usually I would go inside to the mesh level of the Component, select all them mesh, and then Make Group for all of them. Afterwards, I would go outside, copy or cut the 'cutter cube', go back inside the component, and here's the trick, I would Paste in Place that cutter cube, and then just use the Solid Tools as usual. That way, the component is still saved and well preserved.

Vũ Duy Hưng Great thinking!! I WILL be showing that idea in a video! Thank you!

[@microsoftsarker]

Thank for this video & very helpful tutorial

[@NerysOsbourn]

Hi Aaron, what happened to the live model of Tower Bridge that was planned for a couple of weeks ago. Next week perhaps?

[@giulien26]

is possible have a video abouth modelling head only with Sketchup tools?

[@IronMan-yg4qw]

is this really the best software to use for this?

[@AesopEthiopia]

No but it is easy to use

[@Jawad_Alhakeem]

Hi Aron, I dont think I ever saw the biezer curve on my pc, is it an extension? Whos the creator? Thanks alot : )

[@AaronMakingStuff]

Jawad A It is an extension from the SketchUp Team.

[@Bennett_Lab]

maybe I'm getting old but I had a hard time hearing you clearly. Looked like good info though

[@sureshnaik5808]

Design temple work in SketchUp

[@user-xs1bh4ke1m]

Are you available for hire??? I need you to do a project for me

[@SketchUp]

As much as Aaron enjoys modeling, he has a full time job! If you join a live stream you can always suggest a model. Who knows, your idea might get modeled live then shared with the world! You might also reach out on our forum (forums.sketchup.com) and see if you can find a modeler over there!

[@leonsantana3646]

34:02 I have a bad feeling about this

[@bryans5612]

This the fucking way

[@user-kv6xo7zy2n]

...

[@Azraiel.Bridger]

if you took the time to make accurate line measurements you could model far more efficiently and accurately its glaringly obvious you did not even properly center the crest @38:40 and you're bezier also fell short.. the helmet is perfectly symmetrical with right and left halves

[@giulien26]

[@ClintsGrievances]

They won’t do that. They want you to *want* to buy the extensions.
