Sketchup - How To Design A Wardrobe & Create Visuals In No Time ! [ Complete Guide ] #66

Alright Peeps...
In this video my wife (Georgina) and I are showing you a Complete Guide, from beginning to end, on how to design a wardrobe and create Visuals.
We are designing a 5 door Wardrobe, with a mixed layout. Hanging rails, shelving and drawers.
We also go through lots of different useful tools make make life easier.
We go through how we easily create shaker style doors too.
At the end, we save our files so we can go back and edit the sketch at any time in case of customer changes and then save 2d graphics ( photos ) of the finished drawing to add into emails etc.
I hope you enjoy and let me know if you have any questions.
Enjoy
Ryan

It' cool how you're explaining everything ... the two of you

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Apologies, KZbin sometimes holds back some comments for some reason! Thank you very much, yes you got 2 for the price of 1 here lol :-) Ryan

[@emjay254]

You just taught me how to use Sketchup! Thankyou!

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Amazing 😁👍

[@markhoward324]

I'm loving the step by step instruction especially easy for me who has very little knowledge about SketchUp. so easy to understand thanks

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Thanks for the comments Mark, I'm glad they are helping 👍👍👍

[@zeyatyetis]

Very happy Thank you

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Thank you too 👍

[@xx6489]

Over struggling a bit on SketchUp this has been a great help thank you

[@freddyedwards67]

Great tutorial. Thanks very much for sharing both your knowledge of sketch up.

[@ZuglyRed]

This has helped me so much! been trying to find a video for simple cabinet design using sketchup and everything is so overly complex. thanks for brekaing it down!

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Thank you, my style is a bit off the cuff and unplanned but hopefully you understood it all and took something away from it 😊 Have a great day! Cheers ryan

[@danielelorenzoni920]

Well done guys. Georgina you can easily apply for a teacher position.Thanks a lot.

[@emmaslow]

Looking forward to seeing the next step now - your hand drawn technical drawings. Great video 🙂

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

I do have 2 technical drawing videos on KZbin already. Can't remember the names but its something along the lines of "how to design a wardrobe" 👍

[@curious.kitinco]

great video. thanks you two!

[@gdr88]

this is great guys, love the teamwork!

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Thank you, georgina is pretty good at Sketchup 👍

[@gdr88]

@@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop you should do Learn with Georgina episodes around sketchup where you start with a challenge and show how you solved it

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

That's a good plan, maybe in the future we can do that 👍👍👍

[@eddieg1954]

Superb video really educational, thank you. Ed

[@allanbeasley4565]

I’m a bit of a techno dinosaur, so this helps a lot. Thanks 👍

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Haha no probs. It's pretty easy and especially helpful when designing anything with angles, as it tells you the angles and length of the piece etc without having to rod it out full size 👍

[@dannymaloney6300]

thanks for sharing your time great video just getting started with a new workshop a great tool very useful for organising

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

No probs whatsoever 👍👍

[@Astr0oo_zzz]

nice video, I've been learning sketches and I find different products need different processes to build

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Thank you, I'm glad its helped a little 👍

[@Astr0oo_zzz]

@@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop do you have any recommendations for myself to get into cabinet making/installing like yourself? Just finished my nvq level 3 as a more mature learner so will struggle to start on apprentice wages

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

That's a tough one, generally you work your way up with a company and learn as you go, and then your wages would go up as you progress. I think that is still your best bet. It all depends on what you can do I suppose. I did that, but don't think I was in great wages for a while. But I think times have changed, there are minimum wages companies have to pay if you are a certain age. I'd recommend emailing around and seeing if anyone is interested in taking you on?

[@Astr0oo_zzz]

@@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop okay thanks for the reply. I have emailed/called quite a few solo carpenters so just pick the best I guess

[@vinceskinner9357]

Thanks guys, watched a ton of your videos and they have helped me a lot. just watching you i can see you need the below short cuts for PC. Short Cuts... Delete: click on item and press back space. Undo: CTRL + Z Zoom: SHIFT + Z P: Push Pull Space bar: Select Tool M: Move Tool Duplicate item: when item is selected change to the move tool hold CTRL down when you click on the item, Done

[@emmaslow]

Click 'Edit' > 'Delete Guides' for a quicker solution. I am self-taught on SU too, so I learnt some basics from you in this video - stuff I just hadn't discovered before. I guess we all end up with gaps in our skills because we're learning only as much as we need to keep going with the drawing we're working on. I'm still hit & miss with remembering to make every element a component.

[@Smithb83]

Really helpful thank you - would appreciate more of these! Could also include shortcuts such as p for push/pull and r for rectangle etc. Thanks 👍🏻

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

No probs 👍👌 Yes true the shortcuts do cut down time 👍👍

[@doneo50]

very well explained, great tutorial both of you. cheers

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Thanks Mr doneo

[@BarryPaffey]

Great tutorial, thanks for sharing.

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

No problems at all I'm glad its helped👍

[@anthonybowyer1874]

Great video; very informative. I assume its a PC that you use and not a Mac. What laptop do you use and how powerful does it need to be to run Sketchup?

[@samrix5793]

Thanks for the video, I should spend more time on Instagram really. How's the work bench coming along? Have you ever tried using SketchUp to get technical drawings to build from and do sheet cut list?

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

No probs, I have tried before but the fact you need to make every single component a full component ( not my cheaty way lol) it's not really worth it for me personally. I like do my technical drawings by hand and then working out the cutting list from them. The cut lists don't take long at all once I've done the drawings 👍 I've been using insta more often and find it's actually quite handy.

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Also not gone past those frames on the workshop bench build, gutted really as I'd like to get that made!

[@samrix5793]

@@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop you can make dynamic components that would help

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

I've never really tried that tbh

[@samrix5793]

@@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop have you seen the freebird channel on here he uses SketchUp and recently got a CNC to machine panels

[@Tony91177]

Great video! What would also be great is if you could make a video of how you turn your drawings into how you work out the sizes and amounts of wood you need etc for a job for like a wardrobe 👍

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Thank you! Cool that's a good video idea for Sunday next week 👍👍

[@Tony91177]

@@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop I’ll look forward to it ! Could you also maybe go into more detail on how you install the runners that the carcasses sit on and how you go about levelling it etc Many thanks 👍

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Hi if your talking about the wardrobe supports underneath, I already have a video on that. It's called- Level up and fix any carcass with bearers.

[@Tony91177]

@@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop That’s exactly what I’m talking about. I’ll check it out thanks!

[@ishtiaqhussain8524]

What version of sketch up you using? Is it the free version or the purchase version?

[@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop]

Its 2020 pro I think. The free version still does everything you need

[@bharat-anand]

Excellent guide to cabinet designing with step by step instructions. Well done to both of you and thank you very much for walking us thru so patiently. I wonder why you haven't already received a million likes yet. I had some initial hickup with the web version of Sketchup. A couple of tips for the newbies - sketchup web version is free for your personal work, so don't just walk away from this amazing tool. Use "?" to open the search panel, and type whatever you are looking for. Usually, there will be a hot key next to the search results, and the more you use this tool the more you will learn to use those hotkeys. e.g. 'o' for Orbit, 'l' for Line, 'f' for Offset, 'r' for Rectangle, 'c' for Circle and so on.
