    Completely useless to me as it lacks the ability to be precise. The default bool tool is more useful. Also, look at Machine Tools and skip this addon. I asked for a refund with the statement that this addon was purchased without really knowing that it lacked the key features I wanted. This addon is not good for my use case. They refused to give a refund, so here's a 1 star review. I'm never using this addon as other tools do what I want better and faster and more precisely.

    While the add-on itself is powerful, the documentation is not written/formatted in a user friendly way. Otherwise I would give it a higher rating. I will elaborate:

    The issue is that some people like myself would opt for reading a short paragraph about how something functions in its entirety, rather than watching a video. The benefit to the short paragraph is that ideally it should tell you exactly what you need to know. However, with hardops/boxcutter docs, you get a short sentence that doesn't really help someone trying to get a quick answer, and then it's followed by a video that may or may not be up to date. For example, if I want to know how to create a difference boolean, the docs should look something like this (I made up the shortcuts):
    Difference Boolean
    Object Mode -> LMB+drag > X to accept boolean.

    In the example above I explained exactly how you get from native blender to the functionality of the add-on. The current documentation splits up this information into almost an entire page with graphics. While having the extra visuals is nice, you fail to provide a clear and concise way to execute the task, and your docs are now reminiscent of a recipe website with advertisements requiring you to endlessly scroll through until you get to the recipe.

    The documentation ideally should also be up-to-date with the latest Blender release.

    Love it so much! It makes project so much easier especially if you use it for 3D printing cool sci-fi things and action figures. I can finally cut all the parts I've been needing to make for months down to the finest detail. 100/10! Best 38$ I ever spent!

    I am glad to have this add-on. HardOps and BoxCutter are both exceptional tools that take Blender to new level. However, I have noticed that the insert tool with BoxCutter tends to freeze when the shape becomes more complicated, making it impossible to use. To overcome this issue, I use HardOps' insert boolean operation to create panels. I hope this issue will be addressed in future updates. Rest, just get this addon and it will make your life much easier :))

    A fantastic set of tools and features for everyday blender workflows. Unmatched in hard surface modelling.

    Addon either crashes upon activating or causes my system to get laggy/clunky.
    Quite disappointed - would get a refund if I could.

      You will need to update your addon installation to the latest version.

      A playlist on the topic has also been created.

      Once up to date, you will be good to go. Unfortunately older versions of the addon can't work with an ever changing blender so updates are required. I hope that helps and reduces confusion. Blender changes over time and this requires updating.

      Thank you for your review and shared opinions.

    It's good tools.
    Official tutorials too focused on tools features and lacks on flow and reasoning. Like, "Cool, you can cut a box, but why?"
    So if you're new to hard surface modeling, I would recommend Ponte Ryuurui and Josh Gambrell youtube channels. Besides marketing bs(Josh, please, stop, you overdo it) they have both full length tuts on workflow/pipeline and small useful videos.

      Thank you for your kind words. Intended usage of the tools is expanded in the topostudy series.

      A box is just a tooltest. Our work is intended for everything but a box. Keep on keeping on!

    This turns Blender into an entirely different tool, but it still has those Blender controls we know and love, so you don't have to *actually* learn a new program from scratch.
    Once you get these, you won't want to go back.
