- Browser autosaves stay on the device; clearing browser data can remove them, so projects worth keeping should be downloaded.
Field notes
The modeling workflow starts with board outlines, adds thickness with Push/Pull, then uses exact lengths, snapping, and measurement tools to check the assembly. Work autosaves in the browser on the current device, with a downloadable .ketchup project for keeping or reopening it. The page also documents import and export boundaries: SketchUp textures, scenes, and some features are unsupported, while OBJ exports geometry without materials.
