Google's SketchUp can be used to design and display many 3D objects. Creating 3D stairs in SketchUp is as easy as drawing the side outline of two-dimensional stairs and then using the "Push/Pull" feature to turn the two-dimensional image into a 3D image. Complete the 3D plans for your new house, backyard patio, dream castle or just draw some stairs that lead you to the clouds and beyond.
Draw the side outline of your staircase.
Choose the "Push/Pull" tool.
Click and hold your mouse to "pull" the staircase from 2D to 3D. Move your mouse in the direction you want your stairs to face.
Click your mouse again when your stairs are in the proper position.
