Brougham 3D Sketchup File

A primary advantage that my coop plans have over other plans out there is the inclusion of a completely interactive 3d rendering of the coop in Google Sketchup.

Many prospective chicken ark builders who have some mad computer skillz, have asked if I would consider selling the 3d model of the Brougham ConvertiCoop as a stand alone product. My answer to them? You betchya!

If you know your way around a computer and have basic woodworking skills, you can take measurements directly from the 3d model in real time, without a large download or waiting for your booklet to ship. And, I'm going to offer the file only for half price!

Before opening the file, you will need to first download and install Google Sketchup. Skip the Pro version and get the free version at the bottom of the page.
You can find it at this website: http://sketchup.google.com/download/

Now, there are some caveats that come with this download:

• No tech support. Google Sketchup has a lot of information in their help menu (f1) and on Youtube. I figured out how to use the program using these resources, and I bet you can too. 
• No materials or cut list, or assembly instructions. You'll have to take dimensions and measurements directly from the 3d model. If you want to upgrade to the full plans, let me know and I will create a coupon code to reimburse you the cost of the Sketchup file.
• Please don't distribute this file. CatawbaCoops.com is how I make my living these days of unemplo... er, self-employment.
