Joint Push Pull Sketchup 2021 [hot] (Exclusive | Choice)
Never apply JPP to loose geometry. Always triple-click to select all faces, make it a group ( G ), then apply the extrusion inside the group context. This prevents JPP from accidentally welding adjacent geometry.
For architects modeling façades, furniture designers fine-tuning mortise-and-tenon details, or 3D-printing hobbyists building interlocking parts, the tweak translated to concrete productivity gains. Instead of stopping to repair geometry after each playful experiment, designers could iterate more freely, trusting that the model would remain sane. That trust lowered the cognitive cost of exploration: models could be exploratory and believable at once. Joint Push Pull Sketchup 2021
Extrudes multiple faces simultaneously while keeping them "joined" at the seams, perfect for thickening curved surfaces. Never apply JPP to loose geometry
Joint Push Pull is a powerhouse extension for SketchUp 2021 that overcomes the limitations of the native Push/Pull tool, specifically by allowing you to extrude multiple or curved faces at once. Developed by Fredo6, it is widely considered an essential "Swiss Army knife" for complex 3D modeling. Key Tools & Features For architects modeling façades
When you activate the tool, you’ll see a set of buttons and options in the Sketchucation dialog:
Mimics a classic CAD extrusion. It pushes faces along a vector but keeps the original footprint intact, generating a solid projection without warping the sides.
that expands the native Push/Pull tool's capabilities. Created by , it allows you to extrude multiple faces simultaneously—including curved or non-planar surfaces—which the standard tool cannot handle. Key Tool Functions
