Google Sketchup components?

[Iwant1]

Looks like you have made the extrusion into a component. First double click the component to open it then click again to select the group box. Now right click mouse and there is an option to soften/smooth edges. I think this is how far you have got. Sliding the bar up and down should remove all the solid lines till you're happy with it.

Are you getting dotted lines on the corner of the extrusion only, or every bend within it? Should be every bend within the shape. Then go to the 'View' tab and deselect hidden geometry. Should be done, fingers crossed.

Shame you made this 2 days to late for me to use, jcb121's was 80x40mm so I resized this using the scale function to make it 45x90mm.

You've hit the nail on the head again Adil. Thanks. It was me having the friggin "hidden geometry" selected. Oh well, we live and learn... some quicker than others ;-)

Problem solved and have uploaded new version of 45x90 Heavy KJN to the link in my earlier post.

Thanks again,
Andy

My previous version of the 45x90 Heavy KJN model was still wonky and somehow not aligned to the axes and therefore difficult to use, with my limited SketchUp knowledge.

Have again started from scratch and uploaded another (final?) version and updated the previous links. My gawd... I have so much to learn... and that's just using SketchUp and getting the basic design done!
