Milad Native Tools Challenge
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- Challenge accepted! Milad, a SketchUp enthusiast, has issued a challenge to all of you SketchUppers out there: to try and make something in SketchUp only using native tools. We take a look at one of his models - the folded paper - and show you some ways to do this.

Let us know if there are other challenges out there!
"Everything is easy when you know how". What a really good lesson! Thanks.
Love the challenge!
My method was to use the "drape" tool. I started by creating a "D" shape with a curve to match the challenge shape, much like in the extruded "D" in the video. Then I extruded the flat side out to create what would become the upper and lower planes (Kind of looked like a "D" with a rectangular prism attached to the side of it. I grouped the "D" and then drew an "L" shape that matches the foot print of the challenge shape, and extended the lines on the inside edges of the "L" to cross through the plane. I placed the "L" above the curve in the appropriate position, grouped it and draped it onto the "D" group and deleted the unwanted line work (which took but a second) to reveal the final shape. This method only required rotating in the blue axis, and only simple 45 or 90 degrees.
Great video:)
Amazing exercises. It's all about projective geometry. It's amazing that classical geometry is doing a strong return in the digital era. Please keep doing these series of problems and exercises because they give a deep insight in basic modeling techniques.
You can do that by intersecting two boxes and a rotated cylinder and then just removing extra geometry
"...great skills to be learnt there" - I got a couple of things I didn't know, thanks.
So many skills demonstrated in one video. Gonna have to watch that a few times. Very cool.
what a nice way to execute that challenge, good job sir
This is incredible, i’ve upgraded my skill toolbox 😀👍🏽
Wow I'm impressed 👏🏼
I did this by making a flattish 3D box the same height as the distance between the two paper segments. I then made a half-circle sticking out from one corner and extruded it over to the other corner, to create one rounded side. Then I rotated the 3D box 45deg around the vertical axis. Next, I created the L-shaped strip of paper in two dimensions (fully flat), and pulled it up vertically so that it was taller than the 3D box. I positioned the now-3D L shape so that the corner matched the curved part of the first box and intersected them both with each other, leaving me with all the cuts I needed. Finally, I deleted all the extraneous surfaces.
So basically, the same general principal as what you did, except instead of messing around with off-axis inferences, I just rotated the whole kit-n-kaboodle. :p
sandwichHLP “Alls well that ends well” as someone said at some point...
i didnt know you could do that with the rotate tool. Thanks💜🙌
Awesome skill challenge..You are my sketch up guru dude man! Love your classes and thanks for sharing your sketch up knowledge...
There is a much easier way to do this.
Make a rectangle. Pull the carface to make a slid board,
Put a circle on the short edge of the board and erase the inside half of the circle.
Soften the lines where the circle touches the board.
Then grab the circled area just on one side and pull it back along the long edge the same distance as the board is wide.
Then slice the board in two making it half as thick
Hilight the top side but do not include the cut line.
Choosing the cut tool in edit remove the top.
Bring the top piece back with paist tool in edit. It will return as a sepret piece.
Then mirror the piece and turning it 90 °.
Reconnect it to the, bottom piece at the circled end.
Then soften the line that runs through the circle and remove all the surface edges not needed, until you have the finished model of the curved sheet.
what a wizard
Liked that a lot!
At 5:45 you could temporarily change the axes, reference to that midpoint then you could also draw a perpendicular circle to that slant line...😊
You are a real Master. Congrats.
Smashing of thumbs up button on this one. Great one, Milad. And thanks, Aaron!
That was fun. Good job.
Splendid work & super cool training steps...
Vectorworks and bricscad both need someone like you to teach said tools.
thanks for more great ideas
Very good information thanks for sharing. Been using Sketchup since 2015 and only improved from your videos. I need to learn all the shortcut keys, would make designing process so much faster.
If you’re wanting to develop skills sets, your method looks good to me. If you want to solve the problem in the simplest way you could try 1) draw your 45 deg line 2) copy the line up to a second position 3) hit say “/6” and then 4) rotate each bit 15 deg
yup that was my solution too :)
@Jeff Harmed did you check out the insta he mentioned, too? there's a beautiful solution there that starts with making a spiral. The solution that @Aron showed, I'm not a mathemagician but I suspect it's not properly sinusoidal?
yep! easier though not so elegant, but finished quick & easy. fun stuff!
Oh good. Mathemagic is my favourite subject but I hate electrickery.
Hmmm... not sure which would be “easier” but that is what I live about SketchUp! So many options!
Terrifying.. Great work!!!
Nicely done!
I have used four year I have learn new skill. I use PlusSpec design passive house buildings and civil and structure engineering. It is important learn new skills or relearn skill you have forgotten.
Bravo absolutely fantastic
EREN THANKS
Good information thanks for sharing.
Great stuff!
good skill ...keep it !!!!
beautiful lessons
Preface this by saying that I'm a beginner.
All seemed well and good until the last step: deleting the last two lines, which in my case ended up removing the two respective squared surfaces.
Edit: Ok, as a beginner had a bit of hard time figuring out what was the "modifier key". In my case it was Shift.
Good job Sir... 😊
Love this.
Yes i follow that guy miladpirdavari on instagrame
He make more challenge if you look and keep its grate we learn more easy way to do that
Wow!!
very nice indeed!!
thanks! very cool!
i have tried it and i did it
Thank you! Very good!
PRETTY COOL:-)
Is there any chance to make the lesson about complex curves such as spirals using functions? I struggle with wortex shape water reservoir were water should be discharged from the bottom. This shape looks like casing of the Caplan turbine.
If extensions are not being used, how about using the opportunity to show what is possible with Sketchup for Web?
This was very helpful. One question I have is how to make this with a thickness like 12"?
I am good except when it comes to moving the half circle to the midpoint of the grouped 'paper strip' I cannot get past the same thing you did where you couldn't get the half circle to mate up with the angle from the bottom strip to the top strip. I have run AutoCad R-14 for the past 20 years. It won't run on new technology. So I am learning sketch up. Enjoy your tutorials.
Parabéns e obrigado!
what do you do 5:18...?
Nice job
NICE!
A little help from anyone. My rotate tool would not align itself to anything but red, green or blue. I tried clicking on the 45 degree line and following it but that didn't work like the video.
Turbo fan blade please..
Really great 🔥🔥🔥🌷💯🌹
¡Que bueno!, 🙏
Amazing!
So, if I checked the length of the sides when the piece was straight and after folding it, that should be the same.
madwani It may be close, but depending on where you placed the curve it will change the length.
@@AaronMakingStuff Thanks Aaron.
Milad is an Iranian. He is the second Highly skilful Iranian SketchUper I came cross these day.
Could be faster and easier if round corners tool was part of native toolbox.
marakony But then it would not make a very good Native Tool Challenge 😉
@@AaronMakingStuff I'm fine with it if it would make my life (read modeling) easier. To my understanding native tools perform better because they are woven into software code. This episode is a good illustration of why we need a round/chamfer corner tool. But hey, don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining =) I still love Sketchup and thanks for a usefull tip.
DONE!!!!
What about a moëbius strip?
Challenge: 30 sided regular polyhedron
H Aaron. I came to this challenge only recently and solved it with a different (possibly simpler) method. I've saved my process as a pdf - is there any way I can share this?
Can you make a net cushion chair
Can you are not bending with fredo bend?
Waldemar Binder Not in a Native Tool Challenge!
This was a cool video, except the curve you drew isn't technically correct. Instead the curve should be a spiral--something you've already demonstrated when you modeled a screw. Here's why: If you think of that strip as a piece of paper being wrapped around a pipe at 45 degrees, you'd get the desired shape if you go half-way around the pipe, right? Well, keep going. Wrap the paper around the pipe several times. It's obviously following a perfect screw-shaped spiral.
It would have been more accurate to use that circle you drew at 6:17, push it into a long tube, and draw a spiral as if to make it a screw, and then scale and move it along the tube's axis so the spiral intersects the corners. Then, of course, erase all the parts you don't need, etc.
Nevertheless, I love your videos--I always learn new tricks. Keep 'em coming.
how about making that a solid object?
faster use fredo scale - radial bending ... 10 second and finish
DELF True, but the point of this was to model the geometry using ONLY native tools
little difficult i get there
Can someone tell me how to inference off of a non axes plane (so that the new plane becomes the new reference) the way he did in the video?
Andy L Hover over any surface to inference that plane. Use Shift to lock that inference.
@@AaronMakingStuff Thanks. This worked for the first line I drew (lined turned magenta) but defaulted to red, green and blue axes as I tried to make a simple square perpendicular to that face... Is there a video that shows this trick in detail?
Can you tech how to make 3d logo from sticker sir
hi sir, i am one of your subscriber. can we make a drawing of a bot hull? if yes, how?
Here's my entry! ua-cam.com/video/ZdPgqYhWnno/v-deo.html
Gostaria de fazer um curso. É possível ?
