Class 5 Homework [3]: Google SketchUp Tutorial 3

You can push/pull any surface, the tool will always do it in a perpendicular direction to the surface

For accuracy, type in a value and press enter
Metric or empirical units work

Inferring works for push/pulling, for any planar surfaces regardless of orientation
Start by clicking on one surface, end by clicking on another

Push/pull can be used to cut edges in surfaces, only if the two sides are parallel and there are no edges blocking it

The move tool can be used to move endpoints, edges, surfaces, selected entities, and grouped objects

Example of an object being moved, first select it using the select tool then drag it w/ the move tool

Building a box with the pull tool

Making the box 10' tall by typing the value in

Using inferring and the push/pull tool to line up surfaces to the same height

Cutting a hole in a surface

Using the move tool to move the box
