Joint Push Pull — SketchUp 2021 (detailed feature)

Overview Joint Push Pull is a SketchUp extension that allows extruding faces while maintaining connected geometry (shared edges/vertices) — effectively performing push/pull operations that update neighboring faces to preserve manifold geometry and avoid creating gaps or overlapping faces.

3. Interactive Controls & Modifiers

During the operation, the plugin provides an on-screen dashboard and keyboard modifiers for precise control: Joint Push Pull Sketchup 2021

This is a shared library plugin required for almost all of Fredo6’s tools. SketchUcation Extension Store: Joint Push Pull — SketchUp 2021 (detailed feature)

This mattered especially in remote workflows that increased reliance on well-formed geometry. Files shared between collaborators, or passed downstream to renderers, engineers, or CNC operators, needed robust topology. The improved Push/Pull helped close the gap between a designer’s intent and the exported reality. Thickness : Total thickness (e

Here are some tips and tricks to help you get the most out of the Joint Push Pull tool:

  • Thickness: Total thickness (e.g., 10mm → 5mm each side).
  • Cap ends: Closes holes automatically.
  • Delete original: Keeps or removes source faces.

Round Push Pull: Extrudes surfaces and simultaneously rounds the edges of the resulting geometry, similar to the RoundCorner tool. Installation Requirements

Normal Push Pull (N): Pushes each face along its own individual normal. Unlike the Joint version, this will usually result in the faces "splitting" apart if they aren't parallel.
