In the the process of looking for an existing model (marking gauge) in the 3D warehouse I noticed that the SketchUp logo had changed and I also kept seeing the name "Trimble" a longtime leader in GPS and navigation systems. I did a search on them and read the corporate history. Since the 80's they have continued to grow by buying technologies and other companies.
Long story short, they bought SketchUp from Google last June. Their plan is to expand SU and the 3D warehouse - good news. My fear- (no basis either way) is that the free version might go away. Anyone have any insider info?
p.s. I didn't find a marking gauge I liked, so a I drew my own using one from Lee Valley as a model.
