SketchUp Skill Builder: Modeling a Bag of Chips in SketchUp

[@Skans-Gustav]

Nice and clear; as always.

[@milliosmiles5160]

Chiptastic!

[@lint2023]

That is pretty slick. I was surprised that "explode" combined things. Seems counterintuitive.

[@aarondietzen2995]

InTnMnNmAz Glad you liked it! One of the great powers of SketchUp is that it is constantly reviewing geometry and merging it together when it can. It’s a great tool to have, as long as you know how to use it!

[@daviddeitrick9929]

Like the 3D modeling using the sand box. Haven't tried that yet, but it suggests lots of possibilities.

[@hambuilder]

Really fun video- it is great to see what SketchUp is capable of. I don’t use sandbox tools at all and this showed me that maybe I should!. Just maybe not for chips! Thanks!

[@aarondietzen2995]

Stephen Hammontree Chips are just for fun. Hoping to encourage people to think outside of the box and try using tools for something new!

[@daveedwardsconsulting6916]

Turn it sideways and you've got a pillow.

[@JSClements]

Good job. Showing a comparison of methods is really a good idea.

[@Uncle_Buzz]

My jaw is laying on the floor. That was bad-ass. Cheers! Chris.

[@aarondietzen2995]

CrossWood I am so sorry! I never would have posted had I known this would cause body parts to fall off!

[@Uncle_Buzz]

LOL

[@rahadianrihadi]

I want to taste that Sketchip!

[@jeffharmed1616]

Thanks for sharing. You cheated. The reverse side of the bag will have a mirror image, and "pUhctekS"

[@aarondietzen2995]

Jeff Harmed Ha! Good point! If this bag were going further, I would likely have applied a different image to the back half.

[@petewoodhead52]

Just learning SketchUp so this is all new to me. So cool, it's like watching a magic trick. Thank you.

[@madwani]

Wow, that was a great one. Of course, I mean the vid, not the chips. There were nice techniques to learn. Thanks

[@aarondietzen2995]

madwani The chips were pretty good, too!

[@zirotilc]

I don't have any ideas here in sketch up, my question is the sandbox and extensions is already in the sketch up or downloadable?

[@aarondietzen2995]

Arnold Tan Sandbox Tools is a part of SketchUp Pro.

[@damieneatsrice]

Very nice Aaron. Always enjoyed your videos..and this one is no different.

[@aarondietzen2995]

Niraj Poudel Thank you very much, Niraj! Good to hear from you!

[@salahkasli3362]

make 3d laptop

[@larry097]

This is great. I use SketchUp for Point of Sale design and retail design. Adding collateral always makes the concept pop and more believeable. This technique will be great for chips, bags of lollies etc. 👍

[@aarondietzen2995]

minivader Works great for pillows or tea bags... if you ever have to sell those sorts of things...

[@larry097]

Aaron Dietzen someone always has to sell those sorts of things!

[@luistercero699]

I would love for you to teach us how to draw a completely upholstered arm chair using only native tools, or atleast with minimum extension help. I would gladly provide you that chair model. Great video btw, it was very helpful!

[@darrellhaemer]

Sketchip. XD

[@salahkasli3362]

Darrell Haemer 😂

[@jimtimbobolan6546]

Wow amazing. I learned so much on your tutorial. Thank you so much

[@vijaykumarsharma2293]

How simple was that and yet so very creative!! You explanations keep amazing me all the time. Thank you, Aaron.

[@aarondietzen2995]

Vijay Kumar Sharma And thank you for watching!

[@malikammad9212]

Please send me a packet of SketchUp.... Oops.... *Sketchip....,,,

[@kenhaley4]

nice. first time i'd seen a good demo of the sandbox tools.

[@aarondietzen2995]

Ken Haley Thanks, Ken!

[@blastforce7209]

I dont understand how to do the projected thing , i dont know how sample work in mine

[@ruthkezialauretta8479]

same, i'm having difficulties with mine too.

[@blastforce7209]

Ruth Kezia Lauretta i found it , if you use pc press alt and ink dropper will come out, if you press command on macbook ink dropper will come out.

[@popooey]

Great tuts. Thanks alot

[@aarondietzen2995]

popooey You are so welcome!

Fun video, not really applicable for my work, but fun still. I have an architecture firm and we use SketchUp to create all our construction documents. I would love to see a video on dealing with windows. I don't currently have an extension for fenestrations and have looked into many. I would love to see how others deal with fenestrations and changing them throughout the project. They seem to take me a while adjust them when we are looking at changing things when everything is already drawn.

[@aarondietzen2995]

Do you use components for your windows, now? What kind of changes are you needing to make? I would love to make a video or two about this. Just fill me in a little more on the issues you are seeing.

[@kylemacht]

I am making my own components and trying to keep them organized. On the most recent project clients wanted mullions, then a different design, then a different size, etc. I found myself having to make many little changes. Components helped but there were 13 different types of windows in that face of the home. Each window was a component that included exterior trim. Inside the component there was a group for the trim, a group for the frame of the window, then a component for each sash and a group inside that for the mullions. Many little steps each time we want to change a window, not including having to move the R.O. in the wall. I know there are extensions that make this process faster but I wasn't sure which was the best and many seem to do some things but not other things. I know this is easy in other softwares but they aren't as much fun. Does this give you enough info? I probably need to spend more time setting it all up with our favorite windows or make them dynamic components and just have them all scalable so that the frames, trim, etc. stays the same size.

[@aarondietzen2995]

Kyle Macht I cannot say it will cover all of your issues, but FlexTools is worth checking out. It does a great job with R.O.s and I believe that the parametric windows were pretty good.

[@kylemacht]

Thank you, I saw FlexTools a while back then forgot what it was called and couldn't find it again. I think this may be what I am looking for. It just seems that fenestrations tend to be the most time consuming part of my process, mostly when changing/altering things. Overall, I would love to see more architectural based videos. I understand that most people probably want something more basic and universal. Thank you again!

[@daveedwardsconsulting6916]

Don't think bag of chips but maybe pillows for a couch.

[@johnsonbullocks3538]

Aaron that was funny 😂 ..... thanks for always putting live into learning

[@lorenmiller1630]

Whoa! Now, what about Sketchipples?

[@EsmeraldaLeon-k4w]

Thank you

[@mckinnon421]

Very nice indeed!

[@eWood_q8]

Thank you! It was nice to see your face as well :)

[@aarondietzen2995]

eWood Woodworking Workshop What, this old thing?

[@eWood_q8]

Aaron Dietzen 😂😂😂

[@kenmoore4724]

I'm trying to project an imported image as in this video but right clicking, I don't get the Texture and then projected voices when I right click. I'm using SKU Pro 2019. Any ideas please?

[@nirverber3607]

If you upload the image as a texture it will appear in the menu

[@charmianwebster3668]

Great tutorial - thanks a lot

[@فرهنگ-خ3ذ]

tnx

[@daughterofaprince1]

I learned about axis this time.

[@milliosmiles5160]

Super marvellous video Aaron, thank you.

[@closs9503]

Was wondering if anyone could help. I thought I followed this tutorial down to the T, got to the last stage in using the paint bucket tool to paste my own graphics onto the bag but instead of it working the way it's done in this tutorial instead it seems to have pasted bits of each of the graphic on each of the polygons of the bag. So I get a kinde abstract crisp packet. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. The bag is definitely a group and I definitely smoothed all the edges etc so I'm at a loss :/

[@KentNelson]

Me, too!

[@malihasorno6368]

How i can take the sendbox tools...??? Can you give the download link of this tools?

[@fatihkoca2693]

Watched first time and liked it

[@JosephKim]

0:09 Hi ;)

[@givuikaprince3707]

Best SketchUp Pro.

[@egomorfo]

thank you guys for the effort to teach us but i recommend you to be very objective. the less precise information you give, the better for us to learn...

[@aarondietzen2995]

bynar1o Wow! I think you are the first person to ask for LESS detail! Many comments requesting more specifics!

[@egomorfo]

not having the intention of minimi7ing you work ( i thank you again fot it) here i show you a very simple and objective tutorial that establishes the foundations gradually instead of adding to much elements that we, beginners, are unable to absorve......remember: less is more...kzbin.info/www/bejne/bp2naJ6Nf7pml6M

[@mandylam281]

this is crazily good!!

[@blendershots]

I found my image distorted
