A long eyebrow window in the roof of a Dutch barn would be nice 👍🇬🇬

Hey Justine. Wondering if you've done any videos on V-ray enmesh. Looks like a great tool, but so far I can't get it to work.
Any tips?

Hi Justin, On a side tangent, I would like to know if there is a solution existing for retrieving a corrupted SketchUp file. I may have overloaded my SketchUp file for the subsequent corruption. I have even tried to open the backup file, to no gain. I Beg your pardon, for posting on a different subject.

Hi, the best estimate addon? Some advice?

Trying to make 'Japanese' style roofs.. I run into trouble with the 'inner corner' transition.. I typically use the 'follow me' tool to achieve the desired effect, but again, the inner corners get all goofy. Ive tried numerous different options (and plugins) to try and 'fix' this but alas Ive yet to find a solution. Any tips or tricks or even plugins available to achieve this?
