3D Modelling for 3D Printing #3

In this video we finish off the OpenScad Model and start with creating the same model in SketchUp to show the comparison and some of the the required tips and trick.

The final object can be found on thingiverse.com

Below is the code which you should get to by the end of the video if you were following along.
