    I am new to using design software and figured sketchup was a good place to start. Can I import a picture say of the back of my house and use that to design my patio? or do I have have to draw my house and then add the patio blocks to it?

    I got a rear designed for my 06 already, I was planning on designing a front for a 98 for a guy on here, and my friend just smashed his stock front bumper on his 98, so I'm gonna start the design for that tomorrow after we measure up his truck

    How do you piece shit together so easy off the 3D warehouse? I tried a little bit a long time ago and it was really hard to get anything to fit together decently.

    you just scale it to the rest of the truck. it helps to have everything laid out and build it from the ground up.
