Sketchup Model for Laser Cutting

Sketchup - Slice Plugin - DWG


The video above shows the model I created being intersected with other parts. I then use the slice plugin for the first time. Once the plugin sliced my model and placed it side by side. I was annoyed at the fact some of the slices were overlapping. So I then had to edit and move some of them across. I noticed the line work was clean, so there was no need for me to import into AutoCAD to clean up. I placed the DWG file from sketchup into Illustrator and got it ready for laser cutting.
