Blender 2.7 Tutorial #27 : The Boolean Modifier

Visit my Blender 2.7 Tutorial Series playlist for more Blender Tutorials:

In this Tutorial #27 I cover:
-How to use the boolean modifier in Blender to combine two objects in three different ways:
-Use one object to cut a hole in another object (difference)
-Join to objects (union)
-Keep only the portion of the mesh where the two meshes intersect (intersect)

Wow! I was wondering if there was something like this in blender earlier today! This makes modeling so much easier! (Everybody probably knows about this, but I’m still a beginner)

Thank you so much for this video. I thought I was using the boolean modifier incorrectly, I didn't realize the effects were not applied until "Apply" was clicked! Great explanation of the boolean modifier!

i was having so much trouble with this in my recent project, i never would have thought that it was real time, Thank you!

Sometimes I just watch your videos to listen to that intro and out-tro they're just the best bro.

Thank you my dude, visualizing it with the wireframe was perfect

New to this, and have been looking for something like this for a while.  Thanks for the tutorials!

Nice and quick video....ty....the only thing I would suggest you add is that once you use the Union selection, any scaling you might want to do will be done on the whole new object (plus you can pull the original colander out and reuse it) which I would suggest in case you have to resize later. I used this to create a greek colomn then found out my base dimension was calculated right and had to rebuild. If someone knows how to un-boolean an object that would have helped....anyway... i really appreciate people who create short tutorials at the correct speed for following along so I can see all the little clicks and pokes that get nice

you have no idea how much time this would have safed me, i literally sat 3 hours at combining circles for a real mess of cylinders at the front of a rifle, i actually am gonna redo that to see how fast it could have been done :D

[cassandra_writes_songs]

[dylanica]

One hour after watching this video, I had the opportunity to use this technique.  The task would have been laborious to accomplish, but this made it easy.  thanks.

Thanks for this video and explaining! It was really helpful to me.
Btw: I like your voice.. it often sounds like "Look at this, isn't that wonderful?!!" without actually saying it.
