    Where can I find installation instructions for SketchUcam for Sketchup 2013? The one page PDF file contained in the zip file simply says to unzip the entire contents of the .zip into the root directory for Sketchup. There is no mention of copying the .rb somewhere else. I've experimented with placing the .rb in the Tools folder and I get a menu item within Sketchup but attempting to launch it on a simple test model makes Sketchup 2013 hang.

    I really interested in finding a working Sketchup to gcode solution for woodworking. Any help would be appreciated.

    I don't know of anyone to get it working in Sketchup 2013 yet. For now I suggest downloading Sketchup 07 or 08 and putting Sketchucam on it.

    I don't know what you mean by that, Shaun. I had SketchUCam working on SU 2013. I had copied the files to the same location as they are in SU 7. I stopped using SU 2013 because of the non support of the 'get attributed'.

    Please note that SketchUcam uses flat/2D drawings, not 3D drawings (mostly) since the Phlatprinter was designed to cut flat sheets of foam. You can output cuts over a 3D objects but they are neither fast nor accurate, stick to 2D.
