    3D-Wire DXF Export plugin for SketchUp 6.

    I tried to find this plug-in but I couldn't. Basically I just want to convert design into wire frame DXF can be used to convert it to G-Code.

    As you know 2D DXF export is not supported by Standard version.

    So, I finished initial version the script in a day, today!!!

    It seems to be working fine for me. I test some bigger file, it was fine.
    Hopefully it can help you. also save your money, too.

    You can download from URL below.

    Even its page is Korean, but you can easily find "export_3d_wire_dxf.rb" file around top of the page.

    If you have any problem, let me know.

    You can find it with "export_3d_wire_dxf.rb (4KB)" just above the blog title, “ 3D Wire DXF Exporter for Sketchup6 ”. The link has 3.5" diskette icon.

    I am still testing and found out that it is not working with very complex component/group design.

    I am trying to fix it.

    If you don't use Group/Component, it will work fine. I will update as soon as I fix it.

    I updated the script and it is now supports Group and Component export.
    I tested nested groups and components, it worked fine.

    Once you run the script, it will change your design, so press Ctrl-Z or Undo after run the script to roll-back any changes from the script.
