I am trying to create blueprint type pages from my sketchup model. For example, to show an entire bent or wall. I realize that I can move my model to some other kind of software using the pro version to make "real" blueprints. I don't have access to that kind of software, so I'm trying to do a poor man's version of blueprints using just the free version. Here is what I'm thinking might work. After my model is done, I will make it a group (I know this will have to be undone to use Clark's rubies.) I will create another face via a single rectangle. I will then move that rectangle so that it intersects with the outside face of my bent. I will then "intersect" the model so that the edges of the bent will be drawn on the rectangle face. Then I'll hide the timber frame, which will leave the intersected edges on the face of my rectangle. Make this a group. I'll then add measurements, and make it all a separate layer. Doing this should give me a 2D page to print out that kinda looks like a blueprint. Anyone else have any thoughts about this? Thanks.
