via Skillshare

Go to class Write review

Overview

In this class I use SketchUp for 3D modeling a custom-sized Shaker style table, which uses mortise and tenon joints and provides a good example of the fundamentals of joinery and furniture design.

Things you'll learn in this class:

  • furniture design fundamentals
  • 3D modeling in SketchUp
  • mortise and tenon joinery
  • how to make woodworking plans

I use SketchUp 2020, but this lesson will work in all versions of the software.

A free version of SketchUp Make or a trial version of SketchUp can be downloaded here:
