- Once you start modeling for 3D printing, you may want some help cleaning up models to make them solid, manifold, and watertight. Have we got the extensions for you!
ThomThom's Solid Inspector and CleanUp to the rescue!
They make it easy to prepare your SketchUp model to send to a 3D printer through slicing software.

Please do more SketchUp for 3D printing videos. I do a lot of 3D printing, mostly practical things for my home and shop, and all I use is SketchUp for my 3D modeling software.
Nice demo Tyson. I use Solid Inspector but usually when I have issues so good to see how it can be integrated in my workflow.
Also I hadn't come across the Clean up extension so will be sure to install that as well.
Sometimes with complex solids which are not "solid", when I use Solid Inspector to help with or fix issues, it says "No errors. Everything is shiny" but SU Entity Info still does not show a volume. If this happens, I ungroup and regroup the object and that usually fixes things. Also be aware that running CleanUp on large groups with thousands of faces can take a LONG time and can cause SketchUp to crash.
Yes, this works. I do this method often.
Good video
The macOS version of SketchUp really needs to dock all those windows like they do on the PC. The Material window is the worst.
