Call 828 252 8088 to register. The first class will focus on table design. The next session is Tuesday, June 24th, 5:30-8:30, also $30, for those who are familiar with the program. It will focus on projects around the house such as built-ins. |

It's not a class, but someone posted the following link on alt.binaries.pictures.woodworking to a website that contains some Sketchup tutorials. http://www.garymkatz.com/charts_drawings.html | |

Probably one of the best SketchUp sites for learning this great program is by the author of SketchUp for Dummies, Aidan Chopra. Another excellent site is the " Design, Click, Build" Blog on Fine Woodworking's site, featuring several very good SketchUp gurus, especially Dave Richards. A third excellent source is the Designs, Plans and Sketches Forum on Familywoodworking.org, an other friendly forum found on the web.
