The SketchUp Masonry Heater Resource Folder Link is showing up as an empty folder for me.
Possibly the permissions are set to -only viewable to those who have the link?
I had a sync issue which erased the copy of the files I had prepared. We are working on the library now and have an ambitious goal of publishing something this Friday.
We are starting it off with the following folders to get it off the ground:
Foundation Materials - CMU Block Units, Rebar, Slabs
Refractory Materials - Firebrick and Refractory Tile
Firespeaking Hardware - Our Catalog of Hardware for Designers & Builders to incorporate into their design, presentation, and sales work.
We are starting it out hosting it as a publically available Google Drive folder.
Please confirm that it is generally accessible.
The idea is that others might take the folders and create things to add to them. For now, the format would be to post proposed updates here. For example, the “Foundation Materials” folder could use 4" block added to it. It would be neat to have folders for heater concept designs.
@borealheat and I were both introduced to SketchUp by William Davenport who had a nice starter file of many useful models for heater and oven builders. We will see if we can ask for permission to share those or not.
Max thanks for putting this together! Is there anyway you could save these files as version 8. I like most rocker stove folks am still working in the older still free versions of sketchup.
