Google SketchUp is a free, easy-to-learn 3D-modeling program with a few
simple tools to let you create 3D models of houses, sheds, decks, home
additions, woodworking projects, and even space ships. You can add
details, textures, and glass to your models, and design with dimensional
accuracy. You can place your finished models in Google Earth, share
them with others by posting them to the 3D Warehouse, or print hard
copies. Google SketchUp is a great way to discover if 3D modeling is
right for you.
