Dear SketchUp Community -
We are calling on you, our amazing makers and craftspeople, to put your skills and passions to use in this difficult time. We have compiled a list of resources to help you connect with organizations that need your skills, and we are committed to updating it as information changes. The maker movement is mobilizing fast — and helping so much already, that — we figured the best way to help is to provide resources so people can hit the ground running.
We’ve organized a 3D Warehouse collection full of COVID-19 files to help with 3D printing, transforming a bedroom into a class, and so much more. Explore our models and put them to use.
Here’s a list of more resources to get you started:
