Does any one know how I would go about doing this
some one told me that revit imports the files but not sure if the normal Auto CAD Program I have will let me bring it in.

Approach the problem from the other side. How does one export a 3D model from Sketchup for use in AutoCAD.

That's only if you have Sketchup Pro. The free version doesn't allow exporting of models to Autocad. http://sketchup.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=36203 |

True. The OP did not mention the version he's using.

Just download the trial version: http://sketchup.google.com/intl/en/download/gsup.html.
The trial is good for 8 hours of unlimited use, so that should be plenty of time to export out the .dwg. |
