Before I watched the tutorial and the method used, I quickly tried to model the main shape by myself.
I came up with the same workflow, but instead of leaving the circles number of vertices at 32 I lowered it to 10, then I build the surface with subD in mind. I used insets to get a circular edge flow on the circular surface, a grid is not optimal here.
I am not an SubD cultist but this shape in particular is perfect for SubD modelling. It's faster and easier to do and more controllable.

Your tutorial very handy for exploring techniques. *But* . In this particular case... 2 neighbouring octagonal cylinders, flat face to flat face, tops and bottoms inset and punched through with Bridge Edge Loops for the holes, one rotated through 90. Bridge Edge Loops again (Blend Surface) between neighbouring flat faces, with a couple of cuts. Bevel. SubD. *All done* . No add-ons. No Booleans. No repairs. Nicely flowing topology. 🥸

It's so pleasing. The setuping and mastering softs amazing.

Whenever I start to think that I'm finally getting good at Blender, I just watch one of Ponte's tutorials like this one and it makes me feel like an idiot at the beginning all over again. My biggest setback atm is that while I have the HardOps and Boxcutter add-ons, I really don't know how to take full advantage of them. Ponte uses them effectively and it really dramatically speeds up the workflow and generates superior results. That's where I think I want to get to.

This is an amazing way of coming up with interesting shapes. Thanks for sharing 🤠

You've actually got so quality stuff on your channel. Keep that up man!

[tudoravramescu]

I like the tooltip idea when you are working and also the fact that you make reference to other videos where we can check in detail other stuff

went through when I first started video editing, now it's taking a whole new switch and learning soft will only boost my courage for the

It's just mirror here, mirror there, and BOOM! you have it!

[kevokev]

cool design. keep up the good work mate.

[cashtonbriggs]

Dude, you a friggin' mad scientist when it comes to shapes. I can't speak for @Fisha, but I could've spent ALL DAY trying to figure out how you made that...and I never would've got it. Circles...really?!?!?!😫😂

[junaidkhalid]

[WilianF]

Super great video makes excited to learn more and get started! Love the "stay organized" motto !!

[Outmind]

This thing looks mesmerizing! I think I'm gonna tackle it today.

[Smokedship]

Symmetrise just isn't working properly for some reason... Despite joining the objects, its just looping around itself or doing something weird. Was there a step to change the origin point that was left out in the tutorial?

[jcowill]

Will start to learn it tomorrow, lets be patient pips! Godbless us haha

[commoncure]

how do you preserve the supporting edges running through the middle when you mirror? whenever i mirror i removes them
