If you are modeling a curved building or a circular tower, adding wall thickness with native SketchUp tools requires hours of offsetting and manual line drawing. With Joint Push Pull, you simply select the curved facade, activate mode, and pull outward to create instant, uniform wall thickness. Furniture Design

Because Joint Push Pull is a Fredo6 plugin, it requires a "library" file to run.

It looks like you are mastering advanced modeling tools, perhaps because you are and need to give structural thickness to a complex spiral path. Would you like some tips on how to smooth out jagged mesh edges after using Joint Push Pull on complex spiral geometry? Share public link

To use this plugin in SketchUp 2021, you must install two components. Both are available on the SketchUcation PluginStore.

Toggle borders, generate inner faces, or keep the original faces. 4. Pull and Precise Input

: Functions like the native tool but allows you to push/pull multiple disconnected faces at once. Round Push Pull

SketchUp 2021 introduced more aware Push/Pull behavior that better respected adjacent geometry and edge relationships. Rather than a blunt extrude-or-tear approach, the tool began to consider neighboring faces and shared edges, producing cleaner joints and smarter splits. The result wasn’t a reinvention of modeling metaphors; it was a thoughtful tuning that honored the tool’s tactile simplicity while giving users stronger, more predictable control.

The standard Push/Pull tool in SketchUp is powerful, but it has limitations. You can only push or pull one planar face at a time, and it does not work on curved surfaces. Joint Push Pull addresses these specific issues:

After installation, you may need to manually enable the toolbar. Right-click on any existing toolbar area at the top of the SketchUp window. In the context menu, scroll down and look for in the list. Click to check the box, and the toolbar will appear.

The core tool that thickens surfaces by extruding multiple faces while automatically filling in the gaps (joints) between them.

JPP writes a single undo entry. If SketchUp 2021 crashes (rare, but possible with huge meshes), you lose work. Save manually before running the tool on >10,000 faces.
