Hi Justin, do you know if this method can be manipulated to cut through both the front and back faces of a wall. I tried different ways with no result.
I just did this along with your video.Wow, this process is so clean. It addressed a big problem I was having about cutting a hole in geometry. Really helpful.
it is possible to apply the same method to thick walls, you just need to duplicate the cutting component and rotate it 180° then you group everything together with the wall, if you group both components = error if you group the wall separately = error. I also recommend adding size attributes to your cutting components for better adjustments. It's not the best method but at least it's free unlike most plugins on the market.
This is great!! I would love to learn how to make these windows and cut openings dynamic, like in your dynamic shelf video. I am modelling a streetscape with lots of new infill in a heritage district so tips to do this quickly are helpful.

Idk - if I really needed that, I'd probably just use a DoubleCut or WallCutter or something - the amount of time you'd spend trying to work around it would burn up any cost savings you'd get from not having an extension (in my opinion)
About the extra work, it is indeed more complicated, but after you do the first wall the rest becomes faster, but for those who live in a third world country like me where the local currency is 6x less valuable than the dollar, any savings are welcome. I am very happy to see your feedback on an old video, thank you for your attention and keep up the great content, a lot of what I learned was from your channel so again, thank you!
Is there a way of editing components from the 3D warehouse to cut planes? Some windows from the warehouse don’t cut into faces and you can’t seem to edit them to cut faces.
Is it possible to make a wall (with thickness) and set up two cut plane components (one on each face), group them together and that will cut both at once?
I'm working on rendering a Futura home. I've figured out the dimensions pretty much and the only real problem that has me butting my head is figuring out how to cut out and place the oval windows on the curved shell using vanilla Sketchup. I'm going to eventually get it right...Eventually.
As much as this feature seems good, and halfway at the same time. I think it would make a different if the cut are able to penetrate the wall thickness and through wall that are grouped as that is the efficient way to do things in architectural modeling. This feature might be useful for background building that are less important but then again, spending time on putting windows on background building? Hmmm...
Hi everyone! Let me know if you have any questions about today's video in the comments below! :)

Nice, i reversed the cut component and merged them and it worked!
It cut through the wall thickness!
Interesting. Is there a way to do the same thing when the wall has thickness
My question exactly.
Me too! When I'm modeling a home I always use 4 inch thick walls.

no way of course

@@GuilhermeKauffman_Arquitetura Great. I´ll definitely try it. Thanks

once again, Soooo glad i found ur channel!

what if the wall is thick, like 4.5inches or 9inches? Then how to make a component that cuts both side of the wall?
This is so informative! Thank you

Thanks! this video solved my long time question about how to make a window cutting through the wall.
I know there's an extension that allows a component to cut the full thickness of a wall, but is there any way to achieve that in vanilla Sketchup yet?
And what extension would that be?

wow thank you
cool.. but it doesnt work with walls having thickness .. if there is a way kindly guide us...
ммм :) писал такое видео лет 8 назад для студентов
SHOW YOUR F**KING KEYBOARD, i don't know what kays you use
If I have a component that is created outside the surface then it won't work? The component must be created on the surface?
