Not 100% sure about what you are looking for, but you could put the model on 3DWarehouse, then share the link to that…

its a pretty big project (file size is well over 50MB), does that change the ability to use 3DWarehouse

you could convert with the [SimLab 3D PDF Exporter](https://extensions.sketchup.com/en/content/simlab-3d-pdf-exporter-sketchup) plugin to a 3D PDF which can be viewed w/ the free Adobe Reader probably avail on more or less every PC.
