Yes, it used to be free but not anymore, most of Fredo plugins are paid now, I
think there is nothing illegal to use an older version of this extension, well
you need to find it first !!! don't waste your time searching for Curviloft extension alternative,
crack, license key or way to activate it, I'm sharing a copy here if you don't like to
read.

Libfredo6 extension installation is required, download from here :

This is Curviloft 1.3a (27 NOV 13) I'm still using it for Sketchup 2020 Mac
version and it is working fine, no bugs no problems at all and it should work
for you too.
