PLUG INS AND EXTENSIONS
Download Plugins and Extensions
First, go to the link and create a free account. I am using the following extensions (plug ins) to create furniture in my tutorials. These are all FREE, and you should download them all.

Save these in a folder you can access easily - I save all my extensions to a ‘SKETCHUP PLUGINS’ folder on my desktop. I also organize them so they are sorted by the latest date of download. More on this in the intro video.
If you download the power bar and it is not showing up in your SketchUp after you restart it, please go to this link and download the fix.

If for some reason you STILL can't see extensions, please watch the last video in this lecture which explains how to fix that.
If you want to follow along and create the same items - I will include images of all items with each lesson so that you can practice.
The following plugins are not necessary to download - but I have them and find them very useful. Only one of these is a PAID extension - CLOTHWORKS. The rest are free to download.
CLOTHWORKS (I have paid version, cost: $29.00)
BEZIER CURVE extension is amazing when the arc tool needs a little more flexibility
TOOLS ON SURFACE extension is great for when you need to draw a shape such as a circle, rectangle, or line on any curved surface.
