Installing Joint Push Pull Interactive is a straightforward process once you understand the dependencies. The most important prerequisite is , a shared library that many of Fredo6's plugins require to function. Here is the simplified, step-by-step method.

For long-term use and to support the developer, purchasing a license is the best route. The cost is minimal relative to the immense value it provides. A perpetual license for is typically priced at around $12 , or it can be purchased as part of the Fredo6Bundle2022 , which includes 8 of Fredo6's most popular plugins for around $40 . The license is perpetual, meaning you pay once and can use the plugin indefinitely.

Mimics standard extrusion behavior but keeps the original face intact, effectively drawing a solid projection footprint.

The plugin solves this limitation completely. It gives 3D designers, architects, and industrial modelers the power to extrude multiple faces simultaneously, thicken non-planar surfaces, and sculpt organic shapes natively inside SketchUp.

Restart SketchUp to fully initialize the interactive toolbars.

It mimics the visual response of the native SketchUp Push/Pull tool but applies it across multiple selected surfaces simultaneously. Every face moves strictly along its own perpendicular axis.

Ensure your geometry is clean so that the resulting extrusion results in a "Solid Group," which is critical for 3D printing and clean boolean operations.

Just like SketchUp’s native tools, double-clicking a new surface with any Joint Push Pull tool active will instantly apply the exact same extrusion distance used in your previous action. This saves massive amounts of time when working on symmetrical architectural details. To help tailor this guide further, let me know:
