Location: Mulhouse - France
Website:
Hobby woodworker and fully crazy with SketchUp. An amazing toy !
So a brief presentation of myself. I’m 56 years old and living in France (nobody is perfect !) near the city of Mulhouse in the Nord-East of France close to the German and Swiss boarder. I started cutting pieces of wood around 7 years ago but only during my free time. One and half year ago I’ve discovered SketchUp and became totally addict !

Hello Jft68,
Welcome to LJs. I hope that you will find this to be an rewarding and informational aspect of your woodworking adventure.

Hi everybody and thank you for welcoming.
I’m sure I’ll find a lot of interestings subjects here.
Currently I’m testing a Ruby script for SketchUp >>> Cut ListAndMaterials.
Very interesting indeed and I’ve a few problems with some issues. I’ll come back on this later on.
I did a complete translation of this tool in french language for the previous version 4.0.
And now I’ve discovered on your site a new version 4.05. I need to check what main changes are.
So I’m sure I’ll post there very soon.

Welcome to Lumberjocks. The projects are an inspiration, the information is priceless and the people are supportive. The only problem is, the site can get addictive.
God Bless

Tom, I know how addict I can be to all the nice woodworkers forums. And if you add my terrific passion for SketcHup I can tell you you are more playing with your keyboard and mouse than making dust in your workshop ! For sure my wife can tell you something about this ;-)
So a brief presentation of myself. I’m 56 years old and living in France (nobody is perfect !) near the city of Mulhouse in the Nord-East of France close to the German and Swiss boarder. I started cutting pieces of wood around 7 years ago but only during my free time. One and half year ago I’ve discovered SketchUp and become totally addict ! SketchUp was not really well known in our country for woodworker’s usage so I decided to promote it a bit. I launched a thread in May 2007 trying to explain how to use it.
Seems it has been appreciate … Link here but only in french !
I’ll present my shop and some of my basic projects pretty soon.
Thanks again for welcoming
PS: I’m far than good in english and hope you understand my comments.

Salut Jean-Franco. Bienvenue a Lumberjocks! C’est interessant que vous avez traduit le CutList plugin. J’avais envie de faire ca moi meme. Il faut qu’on parle plus de ca! Je pourrais incorpore les changes dans la version suivante.
Welcome to Lumberjocks!

Bonjour Steve !
Une réponse en français, vraiment quel honneur pour moi !
Pas de problème pour vous envoyer les fichiers traduits en français. Cela concerne comme vous le savez, trois fichiers. Par contre ma traduction n’a été faite que pour la version 4.0.1 et pas encore la 4.0.5.
Je n’ai découvert la release qu’hier sur ce site. Je dois parcourir votre version révisée. Vous pourriez peut-être m’aider en me disant quelles lignes ont été ajoutées/modifiées entre le deux versions. Cela concerne probablement seulement le script Ruby puisque les deux fichiers html concernent plus particulièrement l’interface utilisateur (IU).
Faites-moi savoir.
Hi Steve !
thanks for your comments in french !
A great honor for me !
No problem to send you the 3 files I’ve translated in french. But for now I did it for version 4.0.1 and not for the release I’ve discovered here yesterday. I’ve to go through your release to update it. Maybe you can help telling me which lines have been added and/or modified between the two versions. This concern probably only the Ruby script because the two html files are mainly dedicated to the UI.
Let me know.

Salut Jeanmarc,
j’ai vu que tu es un vrai pro, ce qui n’est pas mon cas. Je ne fais que de la bidouille en comparaison. Mais j’aime ça. Je connais beaucoup de sites de boiseux hors de France, mais je n’en connais pas un comme lumberjocks !
Je ne sais pas comment je suis passé à coté. Pour l’instant je regarde, je lis, et bientôt je remplirai mes pages atelier et projets.
Bonne continuation.

Hi everyone, I already appreciate this great place and I’m discovering a gold mine !
But there are so many threads to read ! I need 28 hours a day for sure to go through ;-)
You can find some of my SketchUp drawings on Google 3D Warehouse here

Là ça va être difficile de te répondre car je ne les ai pas faits en une seule fois. En tout cas pour la partie décoration. C’est à dire la mise en place des matériaux (texturage). Pour la petite avec les pieds LouisXV j’ai essayé de faire du simili placage. Il faut donc orienter les textures une par une, éventuellement les redimensionner pour que le grain soit acceptable visuellement.
Mes compétences ont aussi augmenté et je vais plus vite maintenant. Mais disons entre 3 et 4 heures.
Il faut bien savoir ce que tu veux faire avant. Je “crée” directement sur SU. Toutes ces pièces ont des dimensions improvisées à l’oeil, sauf pour la chaise qui est une copie exacte de celles de mon salon ;-)
Avec l’usage des composants cela va assez vite. Pareil pour les tiroirs à QA. Tu en dessines un et ensuite tu peux le redimensionner pour d’autres projets. Est-ce que tu utilises aussi SU ?
