A detailed user guide is included with the installation. Inside SketchUp, go to Extensions->Profile Builder 2->Help to view the complete documentation.
Thousands of profiles packed in with installation:
- AISC Steel Shapes (C, HSS, L, S, W)
- AITC Glulam Profiles
- more than 1400 Moulding Profiles
- Handrails
- Lumber
- Concrete curbs
Due to the current limits of the Extension Warehouse, I am not able to provide an upgrade option for Profile Builder Pro (version 1) customers. Instead, I am offering an introductory price for ALL PB2 customers of $37.50 US (25% discount).
A 30 day free trial is available as well, so take it for a test run and let me know what you think!
