Excellent timing Aaron, I'm just designing my dust collection system for the workshop and have been struggling to get the pipework joints to look correct. Thanks for the video and clear instructions.
What's a clever way to put a radius weld around where two cylinders or pipes intersect? I tried follow-me around the intersecting ring using an arc but it doesn't quite work correctly.
This was great. Sometimes it's confusing when to use each choice... With Selection, With Model, With Context. Well we can now take With Selection off the list!
Good morning Arran, thanks for this skill builder. And yes, I have a question, is it possible to create a weld pattern around the intersection of the pipes?
Thanks, really useful. Is it possible to break a pipe (tube) to reroute i.e therefore change a layout (design). Or would need to re-draw the full pipe run?
I had som electric boxes (group/solid) in a wall (group/solid), when I removed the wall section “in the box” (process, double click wall, draw box, select face and push back until back face) sometimes I have “holes” with side lines and some times no sidelines on the holes. Can’t figure out what I did wrong or different...
Pleezzzz model a catamaran sailboat, sometime ahead? Saw a 2D of an ECO6 cat, from a fella in SA, but no model. Impressive-modeling, that! Help us DIY-boat builders, abit :-) Know...your a TERRIFIC Presenter and absolutely TANX. Hope SketchUp truly rewards you for your Iconic, & effective(!), teaching-style!
Thanks for the video! I have a question related to intersect or subtract to be specific. So I trying to substract using a sphere and rectangle. But I think the sphere I Create is not solid. Will it possible if you can make a video to fix that problem? How to make a Solid Sphere
You probably have some leftover geometry inside of the sphere (circle you used to make it with follow me). You can use "Solid Inspector" extension to clean it up or zoom in to sphere until you are inside of the sphere and then delete everything you don't need in there.
Great tutorial and thanks very much for it. However all of this could easily be spoken about in 1-2min or even less. I suggest maybe next time just get to the point so we don't have to sit here and watch 8mins just to answer a 1min solution
Why don't you just select the whole damn thing, intersect faces with model and trim off all the stuff you don't want? That's what I do literally every single time with no issues and it takes a fraction of the time. You don't have to select the outside face of the vertical pipe and the outside face of the horizontal pipe and intersect faces with selection.... then pan over to the top of the vertical pipe, zoom in, select the inner face of the vertical pipe, select the outer face of the horizontal pipe, and intersect faces with selection, trim the inner leftovers, zoom back out, pan over to the end of the horizontal pipe, zoom in and delete the two inside circles that was previously the inside and outside faces of the vertical pipe. That took way longer than it could've taken. Work smarter not harder. Part of working smarter is working more efficiently.
That can absolutely be done! Many of our videos are created with the intention of teaching how something works so you, the viewer, learn all the options and can make the ideal workflow for your specific usecase!
I like how you explain everything in detail. It makes anyone understand it very easily.
thank you, i'm developing a better understanding watching your "skill builders".

ARGH! YES! Thank you! I've been looking for this solution for so long.
really useful, have been on sketchup for decades but didn't know that trick. instantly subscribed
Just what I needed, last week. I will use it in the future!
Thank you for this I wish I knew this 4 years ago helpful

Useful video. Thank you!
Thanks brother I solved my issue in first 2 minutes
Hey Aaron, does this work for Wye intersections? As in a sanitary sewer pipe where all the changes of direction use a 45 degree angle.
after intersecting with selection, can you then separate the two with its new profile? then slit the pipe and unwrap flat?
Good morning Arran, thanks for this skill builder. And yes, I have a question, is it possible to create a weld pattern around the intersection of the pipes?
Aaron did a weld demo about a year ago using native tools - ua-cam.com/video/n4U3avCLTso/v-deo.html

That was great. Thank you sir!!!!!
How do I simultaneously select two pieces to merge them? I just get "no intersections found..." etc. when I try.
Thank you for the really nice explanation
Thanks .. We need to facilitate the way to draw the pipes in all its details
I had som electric boxes (group/solid) in a wall (group/solid), when I removed the wall section “in the box” (process, double click wall, draw box, select face and push back until back face) sometimes I have “holes” with side lines and some times no sidelines on the holes.

Using CAD at any intersection is easy, how does this help the DIY guy in his garage?
NOW I understand. Thanks Aaron.

Amazing, so easy!
Why not select all, then select intersect with selection, instead of exterior then interior?
Nice explanation sir
Thank You!
Wonderful 🫵👍❤
👍
Thank You
good job
Thank
Very good sir
thanks bro
Great🥰
Molto interessante grazie
Pls steel round pipe, teach me pls😢😢😢
