Every tool I use in Machin3 Tools explained for Blender

I wanted to give a quick summary of just how many tools and functions there are in Machin3 Tools for Blender. It has recently stopped being free, which is a shame, but I still think it's probably the best value for money addon available for Blender. See if you agree.

Crazy useful.. this addon does so much that I always forget all that it does .. even the basic stuff. This is a must have add-on.

Totally agree. I wouldn't be without it.

The align pie is absolutely indispensable for me. Everyone should donate to the author.

Totally agree. It's a shame as if they did to begin with it would remain free for those that couldn't afford to pay. But it's still very cheap

@jujuboohoo 28 күн бұрын

Thank you for doing this and explaining what most of us would likely use the most for each tool. I finally turn on the top 3. lol It's too bad align tool doesn't work when one of the objects has its rotation transform applied but I have 3 point align for that.

@ArtisansofVaul 28 күн бұрын

My pleasure. Yeah that would be great. I'll have to check put three point align. 👍🏻

videos like this are so helpful. some add on packages for blender arnt the most intuitive and as a visual learner spending hours on a wiki isnt what i call helpful.

not only worthy I felt actually bad for getting it for free as I believe good work needs to be rewarded, especially in industries like this - with too much work for too little money - so I bought Deus Ex version even though I've never actually used extra functions.

@ArtisansofVaul 10 күн бұрын

I was the same. Got it free and then bought the Deus Ex for exactly that reason. Some of the Deus Ex tools are pretty nice though.

@suburbanview Ай бұрын

Wow that is a lot for $15. I just got it, didnt know the extent of the tool, WOW!

👍🏻 It's meant to be a quick run-through to that's understandable. I have videos that go through individual elements of Machin3 Tools here at a slower pace with more explanation is that helps: kzfaq.info/sun/PLnqmLZKRm5CYGKLbXGa3l74XPxTi45ft2

So many tools and I still don't fully understand this one, well, or many of them ha, but the align and mirror tools were such a time saver and worth getting it.

@ArtisansofVaul 3 ай бұрын

Agreed. Even without using many of the tools it's still so worth having.

I thought it would be handy as a summary. Felt a little bad not going through everything each function can do but that would take hours.

@asr59 3 ай бұрын

This is one of my top 3 addons for blender, I can't imagine not having it. When I saw the new pricing I didn't hesitate to get it, and it is pretty cheap in comparison with other addons which are about 40$.

@ArtisansofVaul 3 ай бұрын

Totally right on all fronts I'd say. 👍🏻 It's a total bargain.

Thank you for this useful tutorial. I just started modeling and a question has been occupying my mind, maybe it's funny, but does Blender have a good career future? If I get an answer, I can continue with much more energy. thank you

@ArtisansofVaul 3 ай бұрын

That's a difficult one. It's bee getting used more and more and a lot of the theory is applicable in other programs regardless. It also helps you learn a larger variety of skills like sculpting, nodes concepts and topography. But there are other softwares that are specialist and "standard" for some industries so it does depend a lot of what you're thinking of going into.

@Moj206Pejo 3 ай бұрын

Thanks for the detailed explanation. I switched to this software for advertising, and in the future I want to advertise for markets. Thank you for your answer.@@ArtisansofVaul

@dubtube6691 2 ай бұрын

would be cool if the developer of machine tools could implement a perpendicular snap of the knife tool like in Maya. Some features are simply missing in Blender

@ArtisansofVaul 2 ай бұрын

Sorry, what do you mean by perpendicular snap?

@dubtube6691 2 ай бұрын

in Maya one has the option to snap to an edge in a 90 degree angle when possible. In Blender it only works as long you are working with the axis x y z, but does not work in local space right? when you rotate a cube for example

@ArtisansofVaul 2 ай бұрын

@dubtube6691 Ah I see. Blender already allows you to snap to increments after each click to allow this. It's just related to your view so it can be any plane. It's covered in this video along with other tricks you might like: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/es6Bgsyk09KxpWQ.html

@dubtube6691 2 ай бұрын

its really strange, because you can measure the angle with the knife tool lol just lock it at 90 degree, done, would be too easy :)

@dubtube6691 2 ай бұрын

@@ArtisansofVaul ok ok, it works :) in your video you explained how to change the number of the angle snap increment. Pressing A twice it changes between absolute and relative ! and with D it shows a 90 degree snap, nice. works in Blender as well, not so obvious but the edge gets yellow in relative mode
