Hey guys, i'm working on a personal project to make 2 different styled cube cases that i have the dimensions on in my notebook and i'm wondering if there is a way to use pre made models and just import the dimensions of said components? If so, how?

Thanks, Mike.

Sorry, but I just wanted to point out that @Bustin's username makes me think of this video.

I don't think it's 'technically' NSFW but I wouldn't watch it at work myself.

Sketchup also offers its 'Warehouse' which is a collection of user made models, that can be very detailed, and to scale usually! If you're looking to mock up a design quickly, that's the place I'd personally recommend!

Yup, that's me. Or at least I designed and assembled it, Protocase manufactured the chassis.
