I’ve been using blender for almost a decade now, but never did that much modeling. Very helpful tutorial, lots of good advice. I do however sorely wish we could see what keys you’re pressing.

The first time I tried to do this I followed along without using any addons. Lasted roughly 30mins before giving up and purchasing hardops/boxcutter. That was several months ago, and have since been using Blender everyday and really enjoying it, compared to struggling to understand how to use it for years and always giving up. These addons, along with machin3tools, and meshmachine, for me are priceless as they kept me interested instead of giving up again. Appreciate your videos. I have said it before but it needs to be said so others might go down the same path.

really good of you to say that whether you are a beginner or a professional... i don't care. you really push us to give our best. loved this

THANK YOU JOSH, I really appreciate that you explain what things are actually doing e.g that a reverse bevel is just flipping the normals. Because of that I was able to do a reverse bevel without the addons.

Great video! I was struggling with HardOps and have a much larger step by step tutorial you create but I feel this was the video where things just clicked! Thank you.

I'm absolutely addicted to your channel. Such quality content all of them and a great way to learn for a beginner as me (or I suppose to anyone). Can't wait to finish my actual course and after that start the Blender Bros course, I'm really excited about that. Thanks Josh and take care! ❤

9:50 was what I needed for something real quick. But instead of making a full circle cut in the middle, I brought the segments down to 6 for a flat hex head type of screw.

[RyanD_Games]

Cheers for the vids
just wondering is the free game asset handle tutorial still up bc I can't find it

[haoxiangwang]

hey man video was great. only suggestion is i think your video is covering up the keyboard shortcuts visual. that made it a little hard to follow. Cheers!

[sinaosmani]

Always somthing to learn...noted and thanks by the way man🙌

Niice .. really cool. Can you do a video where you model a complex shape from a reference photo? Sometimes I feel like I make random shapes because I know I can make them, rather than in an actual production studio setting where I'm either given concept art or a reference image of a real-life mechanical thing. Your tutorials help me out a lot. Thanks!

Dear i have always a problem with the Ngon cutter when I use this by object view it draw always upside of the object the finally it will be small and not in a desirable location that I want please will you help me regrading this

[bardeeaaaa]

these are awesome Josh! Do you think you could do or recommend tutorials on how to texture these objects? They're so intricate, I have a hard time with it

[artofasheer]

do i need hardops and boxcutter to follow this tutorial?

[lofiled]

What about importing midi files because most midis freezes my program. What can I do about it? I'm using soft soft Bundle Pack by
