Hey dude, how are you? I just started using carver is awesome but for some reason when I apply custom brushes to a spaceship I am building, I press the space bar and D for thickness but I do not get the same result as on a flat surface and blender keep on crushing. I have a decently powerful workstation so I am kinda puzzled on why blender crashes. Any little help would be greatly appreciated! Great blender channel by the way :) Glad I have found you
Thank you for bringing Carver into the spotlight! It's tucked away and seems to be very underutilized. I want to master this add-on before I look at more complex ones. This + BoolTool is already a huge buff to hardsurface modelling.
Wow, it blows my mind just how great the free carver addon truly is! This has been a huge help especially considering you can add your own custom brush cutters! Great video!!
Wow. What an amazing addon - can't believe I didn't know about this. I might prefer to use this over BoxCutter, considering it's so easy to create your own cutting profiles! Thanks so much!
amazing! going to save this video for later but already saw the short and looks like one of those "I wish I knew this 4 months ago" videos. Which is probably why I need to subscribe haha!
Fantastic thank you. Months ago I had accidently used the brushes (your point number 7) but since then had been unable to figure out how I had done it. Thanks again
Lol - there is ridiculously little documentation about how that feature works - I looked in the notes on the Blender knowledge base and it basically says documentation about adding custom brushes is on the developer to do list and provides nothing.
@@TheCGEssentials yeah I looked for docs for so long but found nothing. Really got to a point I thought I was cracking up and the feature must have been removed. Anyway big thanks again
During snapping to grid at 3:58, is there anyway to make the first click snap to grid and not just the second part? I'm having trouble getting perfectly grid aligned cuts since I can't find a way to make the first click align with the grid. (I've tried google search and others vids.)
The rebool function doesn't work for me - it says "Error: Modifiers cannot be applied to multi-user data". I've already made the cube a single user and made sure there are no other instances. Opened a new file with brand new copy of Blender 3.2 and still same result. Anyone else had this issue?
bro... I love you channel. I really do. I notice you always have harsh lighting and shadows on your face. Why dont you maybe add some tint on your window or your a scrim (even a dyi one would help reduce a few stops).
Instead of doing a cut I'm applying a solid ! and as soon as I finish the cut the Carver tool cancels? I've pressed a key in error, which one? I have to Esc and reopen to clear it ? Thx
You know, you never showed how to use the tool. You turn on the plugin, then just start making rectangles while in Object mode with the normal cursor. How do you activate the tool? You said something about Shift-Ctl-X, but is that a keystroke you set up? (And why does this tool work in Object mode?)
why do you just launch into pressing buttons- how about a few sentences saying why to use something, when to use something- it's not teaching, it's just spewing commands- sometimes those that know the software the best, are the worst teachers- still- good vids
honestly, I'm sick and tired of blender add-ons free or not. you need hundreds of them to make blender a complete 3D software. big downside of opensource is this. it's almost as bad as the millions of Linux distros all free and all incomplete...
Here we have a saying "For free, even a forehead injection". Don't blame a free tool, it's free, if you don't like it, use a paid one and then blame for the incompetence
Hi everyone! Are you using Carver? Let me know what you think in the comments below! :)

This add-on doesn't help, it changes lives, thanks for sharing

Thanks so much!
Oh how on earth 😀 !!
I use carver like daily ... but these profile brushes are insane !!!
This is one of the most helpful Blender tutorials I've seen ! thank you so much!!!!
thanks for your videos very very helpful❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for watching!
Good to know about custom profiles
Thank you 😊
Discovered that if your mesh already has a material, the new cuts automatically assign space for a new material.. . handy :)
This is a very handy addon. Thanks for the great tutorial
Awesome such a sweet little addon that I wished I knew about before buying extra addons. Thanks for your videos they're a great help.
Glad you like them!
thanks for the help!
Very good one... Thanks a lot
Oh wow, thanks for this hint! I should've known about this build in addon before I've spent money for addons like Boxcutter 🙈
Wow! Thank you!
thats pretty cool.

I appreciate your work man!
It`s fire thank you!
Glad you like it!
had no idea this existed! fantastic video, thanks for sharing!
would you recommend this or something like substance for hard surface detailing?
boxcutter user here, i will try this
Keep up the good info
Ain't no wayyyy and I wanted to pay for box cutter.....Thanks man!!!
That's great, thanks :) Does it leave good geometry though? You know quads...?

Custom brushes don't appear using the prefix correctly and everything ?? Why don't they show ?
Shared to my Twitterists :)

Hey I'm trying to use carver but it doesn't give me the difference option and keeps the create option even when I shift Ctrl x
I’m also struggling with this
Ok actually I figured this out. You have to have the object you want to cut selected or it just creates geo. Makes sense actually.
this is crazy
When I launch carver I keep getting stuck in its create mode vs difference. So it’ll just create geo. Any idea what I’m doing wrong?
I had the same problem. Press Ctrl + Shift + X on Object mode
hey ur fucking awesome! thanks for sharing btw

Blender is just a tool, use it as such.

This is gold! Thank you!!! 🤍
