Fisher & Paykel Sketchup Models

[Jayne Hiddleston]

Hi Guys,

Came across some CAD models for Fisher & Paykel which is great especially for American Fridge Freezers as I know we all struggle to find realistic looking ones:

some of these are available as sketchup files which we can then import into articad. However the wine coolers dont have a sketchup file - only DWG files? Does anyone know how these could be converted to sketchup? Some good wine cooler models would be awesome to have

Hope you find these models useful!

Jayne,  good find. Just opened one of the .dwg files which are just 2d cad drawings.

aw man! the sketchup ones arent too great either but once you assign colours (and your magic touch) to them it helps with their realism. Nice to find a F/F with a drawer freezer too

Well, just found a BIM website called Modlar that you can download Sketchup models from Fisher & Paykel as well as other formats!

Tried one of the hoods and they look great. It downloaded as a *.zip compressed file and it contains another *.zip file inside so I have to unzip that to see the *.skp file..

A few other Appliance Manufacturers Models on there to like Bosch and Miele etc.

Just have to sign up first which is free! 

Enjoy:
