  1. Great to see others using 3D software for design – keep it up! Look forward to seeing other examples with SketchUp. Off subject here but found the metal spinning info useful – got the tools never tried yet!
    Best wishes

  2. Philip,
    Thanks for visiting turnedoutright. If you are interested in a book on modelling check back it will be available soon.
    Metal spinnning has introduced a new turn into this craft and I’m just learning. I would be happy to compare notes as you try out your new tools.

  3. In response to your question, I’m not sure about a book. Being as the subject is computer-related, a CD or DVD would more likely have success, I think. Good luck with your project!
