SketchUp! users (or interested parties) should bookmark http://www.formfonts.com/ for future consideration. While it's a subscription model to actually access the material on the site, browsing the many, many models is a great way to see just what is possible with this program...even human forms. My jaw is still touching the desk...

I think they need to run Oracle for their DB.;)

I hit the link and voila:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/formfont/public_html/include/classdb.php on line 44



Due to the over-whelming volume of users, the server is currently full.

Please try again in a few minutes.


Be assured that we are also in the process of upgrading our servers to avoid this problem in the future.

Yea, everyone on the planet just got the SketchUp! newsletter email, so I suspect that's causing the flooding of traffic. I got in as I clicked almost immediately upon recept, but started to have issues once I was browsing for a bit. Check it out "later" when the excitment dies...

Oh, and Todd was mentioned in the newsletter as "being on board" for the FormFonts thing... :D

Jim,
Did you see who the author of the Ruby Scripts section is? It's Todd.

I found this site where you can download Sketchup files for different woodworking tools. THIS IS FREE!!
