Summary

Hopefully, having done everything in this chapter, you not only picked up a tip or two about modeling in SketchUp but also saw how easy it is to work with existing files. We covered the process of repairing and scaling imported geometry, as well as the process of using the native SketchUp tools and Solid Tools to modify and add to imported geometry.

At this point, we are ready to put it all together with one final 3D print. Let’s tackle that in Chapter 8, Assembling the Pieces Post-Printing.
