Proposed "L" Shape DIY project

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
how did u bend the pipe in sketchup????
 
I would go for the L shape tank, sure it hasn't got the maximum water volumn you could have but it is more pleasing to the eye.

Hi, its pretty simple once you figure out how it works. You have to draw a circle, then from the center point draw a line and drag using the pull tool along the line.

Here is an example:

First the circle and line is drawn:


then you select the tool

Then with the tool click on the cicle:


Pull it along the line:


Carry on downwards, and it draws the pipe ;)


Off course you can draw the line in any shape you want, you can use the round tool to make perfect round turns on pipes. Just make sure you draw the entire line of the pipe you want to use before you pull it.

Hope that helps :)
Anything else just ask
 
I will get back to it thats for sure, but there are other priorities at the moment.
So this might be on hold for a while still :( life is a b**** sometimes!
