Google Sketchup

This has been on my todo list forever, and today I finally got around to it. I've been wanting to learn how to use Google Sketchup ever since it was released and they are now on version 7, so that should tell you how long I've been putting it off. Sketchup is a free CAD/CAM software package for doing 3-D design work. It is really easy to learn, especially after viewing the tutorial videos that Google provides. After watching about 20 minutes of video and playing around with it for about an hour, this fancy end table is my first creation. Not bad, huh? I'm going to continue playing with it until I improve my skills and then I plan to use it to sketch some home improvement projects that I have brewing.
