Furniture Modeling Tutors & Services: 1-on-1 Online Zoom Training

After completing an MS Interior Architecture degree at the Boston Architectural College, and a BA(Hons) from Staffordshire University, I have experience using SketchUp Pro, SU Podium, SU Podium Walker, Revit LT 2020 and TwinMotion (basics) and I am familiarized with the online designfiles.co platform for e-design projects. I have been working with interior designers, architects and homeowners doing freelance 3d modelling and rendering work for 7+ yrs and online tutorials for 5+yrs.

​

I also have a few SketchUp online courses available contact me for more info.

Over 30 years experience with 3D CAD software as well as manufacturing software especially in the precision sheet metal field. – I remain current in SketchUp and SolidWORKS software as the software(s) evolves.

SketchUp allows a designer to quickly build a concept and much more including 3d architectural rendering.

SolidWORKS allows for a more parametric or geometry driven interactive design with “real world” implications.

You will Learn to:

Create Sketchup Models / Prints for 3D Printing, Interior Design, Mechanical Design, etc…

Create Mechanical Models / Drawings with Solidworks

​Types of Services Available:

​1) Tutoring (one on one tutoring sessions)

2) Collaborative Sessions (work partly done by client)

3) Freelance/Contract Work (3d modelling and Sketchup services based on hourly rate)

I'm based in Scotland, UK, with over 35 years of hands-on design and detailing experience in the Architectural (AEC) sector. I work globally as a premier SketchUp Authorised Trainer, CAD & 3D visualisation consultant, and official UK software reseller. My mission is simple: to deliver transformative, results-driven support to professional designers, technologists, and creatives—far beyond the standard training experience.

What sets me apart is not only my extensive background across eight architectural practices, housebuilders, and construction companies but also my proven ability to deliver real-world, project-driven training that meets critical deadlines. I don’t just teach software—I empower professionals to work smarter and faster with tailored, on-project coaching and consultancy that aligns with their exact needs.

With accreditation history from Autodesk and SketchUp (via @Last Software, SketchUp Creators, Google, and now Trimble), I offer unique insight and privileged access as a long-standing UK partner. My relationships with software developers allow me to provide ahead-of-the-curve knowledge and capabilities to my clients—backed by glowing testimonials and long-term partnerships.

Whether it's a design competition or a full-scale project delivery, I consistently deliver high-quality, high-value work with professionalism, clarity, and care. I live and breathe the creative process, and I’m passionate about helping every client succeed—overdelivering at every opportunity.

I come from a 3D background in traditional sculpture and fabrication. Having worked for NYC-based artist studios for years. I am great at figuring out 3D solutions to help deliver your project from start to finish. ZBrush is the go-to program for handling high polygon count scans and meshes. I have tons of experience with 3D scanning technology, with all of the Artec scanners and Faro Laser Scanner, and can show you how to clean up your high quality scans and prepare them for 3D print, CNC routing, or game design and animation rendering. Interested in developing a character for game design or 3D print? Use your phone to create scans, or create it from scratch with ZBrush’s powerful sculpting tools! Additionally. I can help you prepare high polygon meshes for 3D print, making sure you loose no detail in the hollowing out process, and consulting about which printer to use for the best results at the lowest price.

Architecturally trained and visualization-driven, I create compelling 3D visuals using tools like SketchUp, Lumion, Vray, and Enscape. From large-scale developments to sustainable infrastructure, I help architects and designers bring ideas to life. My work is fueled by global travel, a love of culture, and a deep connection to the natural world.

Hi, my name is Geoff. I have been a professional designer since 1999, and a 3D modeling teacher since 2005. I’ve taught Sketchup at Front Range Community College, the University of Colorado and have taught hundreds of students online. My interest in SketchUp started with my love for snowboarding. I started designing and building snowboard parks when I was 18. SketchUp was the perfect tool for the job. It allowed me to quickly draw the 3D ideas I had in my head. In the summers, I started teaching architects how to use the program. Compared to the complex curves of terrain parks, the straight lines in architecture were easy. Over the years I made thousands of models and have expanded my skills to include product design, 3D print modeling, construction documents, Layout, piping models, topographic models, and various other projects. SketchUp has helped me realize my love for design, modeling, and teaching. I’d like share my love for the program with you, complete your drawings, and help you meet your deadlines. No matter where you live, what age, or what ability level, I can help you realize your dreams in 3D!

I specialize in architecture, but I have a background in design-build/manufacturing and enjoy exploring all realms of art & design.

Sketchup and Layout are very valuable tools for any designer or builder. Having the ability to quickly develop and endlessly explore a 3D design will give you an advantage over your competition. Twinmotion & Enscape are SketchUp plugins that are used to produce real-time environments from the same model. You no longer have to be a computer genius to create amazing realistic content.

I enjoy teaching others about his creative process while keeping the lessons fun and informative. In my free time I enjoy camping, creating music, skateboarding, learning new software, and anything that challenges me.

Hello, my name is Anthony R, I started drafting when I was 15 for the family business. My father is a fine finish general contractor and cabinet manufacturer, and grandfather was an architect. Neither of them used cad, so I began inputting hand sketches into 3D Autocad when I was 15 years old. Over 10 years ago, I began utilizing solidworks for creative product development, sculptures, furniture, and full production drawings for architectural metal and glass fabrication. My unique skill set has opened doors for me to stay consistently busy as a subcontracted designer/developer in Seattle, Portland, Brooklyn, and most recently Spokane/Coeur d’Alene.

My favorite projects are ultra high end luxury residential design for fabrication featuring steel, stainless and glass with an emphasis on invisible fastening, modularity and seamless aesthetics. I spent over 3 years mastering waterjet cutting stained and fusible art glass, glass bending, laminated glass, and have worked for some incredible glass artists and architectural glass installers in the Pacific Northwest and NYC.

I’ve developed horticultural, architectural and artistic lighting products that meet UL and other safety certification requirements. I can take any concept, project, or product, and refine it into an incredible finished product with exceptional speed and accuracy, ready to be manufactured utilizing whatever supply chain best suited for your application and volume.

I’ve designed custom aluminum extrusions, custom sheet metal forming and turret tools, and even developed and patented several state of the art manufacturing processes and origami-inspired structural shapes that provide exceptional strength:weight ratios and require no fasteners or welding thanks to the proprietary folding and joining methods.

My favorite manufacturing technology is hands down LASERS, whether it’s sheet metal laser cutting, tube laser cutting or handheld laser welding, I’m all about lasers. In addition to launching my own product lines, consulting, and training; I’m also a sales rep for the most innovative handheld laser welding machine that makes welding beautiful handheld seams in nearly all metals easier than running a caulk bead.

I am also highly preferential to CNC waterjet cutting, have developed several concepts related to hyper-sonic hydro-pneumatic machining, continuous loop abrasive recycle cutting, and innovative fixturing and material support systems.

I can do projects simple or highly complex, communicate and train efficiently, and make it fun along the way. If you are interested in learning more about Solidworks, product development, manufacturing, or just simple 3d modeling for 3d printing, I’d love to work with you and get you to where you want to go.
