Here are some practical tips to integrate Joint Push Pull into your daily SketchUp 2021 modeling:
The Joint Push Pull tool is a native SketchUp tool that enables users to push and pull faces, edges, and vertices in a model, while maintaining their connections to other entities. This tool is particularly useful for creating and modifying complex shapes, such as curved surfaces, irregular polygons, and organic forms.
SketchUp plugins are highly sensitive to front (white) and back (blue) faces. If your extrusion looks inverted or distorted, reverse your faces ( Right-click > Reverse Faces ) before running Joint Push Pull.
Click and drag the surface to visually set the extrusion depth.
Go to the SketchUcation PluginStore . Search for and download both LibFredo6 and JointPushPull as .rbz files.
Compact mode is a streamlined version for creating extrusions from faces drawn on a curved surface. In this mode, the extruded body is automatically grouped, and you have direct control over whether the top face of the extrusion is flat or remains curved. It offers a fast way to create architectural features like window frames on a cylindrical building.

Extrudes faces while creating side faces. Follow Push Pull: Extrudes faces along a curved path. Key Options in the Tool Dialog
Because Joint Push Pull handles highly complex mathematical calculations, complex geometry can occasionally glitch. Use these tips to ensure a flawless model:
The plugin features several distinct extrusion modes, each tailored to specific geometric needs:
Click once, move your mouse, and type the desired thickness (e.g., 100mm) then press Enter .
