This whole build is next level. I've been learning a lot.

Can't wait to see the end result.

So apparently you can get displacement of a box if you use sketchup, so I spent about 2.5 hours learning the program and drawing out my wall via the internal diameters of my shell in hopes to get its physical size.

From what I can find, nope... Unless Im doing something wrong. No idea..

But this is why I dont do designs for people due to wasting time drawing on a computer while i could of had that said box I was drawing cut and almost assembled in that amount of time.
Granted I can see why designers draw them, so people know how and which way to assemble the cut panels together. Its just not for me though.

Oh well I guess it kinda looks cool, but really it was nothing but a waste of time at this point.

Back to crunching numbers manually.

You're doing it wrong you're actually building. Remember you just throw it up in sketch up and charge 40 bucks and call it a day

lmao!

But it just goes to show my point.

What did skecthup actually do for me?

Not a damn thing.

Sure it looks cool, but thats it.

Its not telling me its displacement like some say sketchup will do, and I already got this far without it, and just doodled some lines on a piece of paper of what I was wanting, and changing them as I go where needed.

Now if it showed which panel went where on the design i could maybe see it being useful but so far no bueno!

Just man up and buy the subscription for AutoCad Inventor. It'll tell you every fucking thing conceivable about your design.

Sketchup is really only nice to make sure all your panels fit together, after that I haven't found anything else to do with it.
