This enhanced PDF digital book is designed to teach woodworkers how to use SketchUp to design, plan and problem solve furniture, cabinets or any woodworking project. Author Robert W. Lang is executive editor and project illustrator of Popular Woodworking Magazine and teaches SketchUp throughout the United States. This unique book starts with the basics of setting up the SketchUp program and shows how to use the tools in SketchUp to accurately plan woodworking projects. Within the 184 pages of illustrated text are 50 short videos that supplement the written instruction. Woodworker's Guide to SketchUp is easily searched for fast navigation and quick review. It is shipped via first class mail on a disc. You will need the latest version of Adobe Reader to view the content on your computer. This is the best way to learn SketchUp for woodworking applications, as it goes into detail for the skills useful to woodworkers, cabinetmakers and furniture makers without instruction for architectural uses of the SketchUp program. It doesn't show you how to frame a roof or design a stairway, but it does show you how to accurately plan and detail woodworking projects.
