If you encounter crashes, ensure your SketchUp installation is running the latest patch, or consider running the script in SketchUp 2017 Make, which maintains high compatibility with legacy plugins.

Using Flattery requires a specific workflow to ensure your 3D model flattens cleanly without overlapping faces. 1. Prepare Your Model

The Flattery SketchUp plugin is a must-have for anyone interested in papercraft, woodworking templates, or sheet metal design. It turns SketchUp from a mere visualization tool into a powerful production powerhouse.
