Sketchup should be renamed, Sketching with Components. ;~)
Think of they way you build things in the shop, draw the same way.

Does that mean, build something in an exploded view and then assemble
it to have a finished project on paper?

As I undertand it, if you use components to draw something that something
can then be exploded.

I have to admit, I haven't started using Sketchup yet. Not because I'm
afraid of it, (maybe a litte) just that I'm comfortable with the
program I currently use.

I know I could learn Sketchup, just that I realize it would take some
time and I'm not yet willing to allocated the time I fear it would
take.

It's not *that* much of a learning curve. If you watch the first four
introductory videos - less than an hour total IIRC - I'd think you'd be
pretty much good to go since you are already familiar with CAD.
