It's competition time so get your Christmas thinking caps on! There's some great prizes on offer for the 3 lucky winners.
The theme of the competition is 'Christmas' so we will leave the rest up to your imagination!
Read on to see what's on offer and how to enter.
We've teamed up with 3Dconnexion and Vertex Tool's creator Thomas Thomassen to deliver a superb competition for SketchUcation members. When you mix the most popular 3D mouse on the market with SketchUp's most powerful Extension you get a match made in heaven.
Now you have a chance to own both! It is a straight up modeling competition that's voted on by the members. The top 10 most voted upon will be judged by a panel of experienced SketchUp users to decide who's the overall winners.
The Prizes

1st place will win a 3Dconnexion SpaceMouse Pro and a Licensed copy of Vertex Tools
2nd place will win a 3Dconnexion SpaceMouse Wireless and a Licensed copy of Vertex Tools
3rd place will win a Licensed copy of Vertex Tools
Christmas Competition
The competition theme is Christmas and all you need to do is model something with a festive flavour in SketchUp.
To add some spice to the competition you will need to use Thomthom's Vertex Tools at some point in the process. You can grab a trial version of Vertex Tools from the PluginStore.
Easy huh? There are a few more rules to adhere to.....
