curver add-on comes with a lots of good tool so you dont have to pay for boxcutter

first im going to list them here and then i will explain everything


HOTKEYS:

Gap for rowsor columns = J (-) U

Create / delete cols = left and right keys

Create / delete rows = up and down keys

previous por next profile = X (-) W

step angle = CTRL+LMB+MOVE

rotation = LMB+MOVE

scale = S

duplicate = ALT+SPACE

rebool = SHIFT+SPACE

difference = SPACE

object mode = B

first activate the add-on by going to preferences > add-ons > search tab > search for carver


so both carver and boxcutter paid add-on are quick boolean tools the only difference is the built-in GUI carver has s..h..!..t..ty one
blame devs for that on the other hand boxcutter has better GUI and when you activate it you can use some hots keys

thats all.... not all box cutter has more tools but main thing is the boolean tool

ok im going to stop the rant and explain the tools

-rebool

this will cut and keep the cutted part look at this photo

you can do this stuff and a lot more for your 3d model

good for when you want to make cyberpunky weapons and work on little parts or panels

NOTE : btw if you dont click on the object that you want to cut and then press the shift ctrl x instead of cutting you can create mesh

VERY cool. right ? right????????????

Create / delete cols works with -> and <- and lets you create the same profile vertical

look at this

Create / delete rows works with up and down and lets you create the same profile horizontal

look at this


you can bring up more built-in profile with x or w key


with CTRL + LMB + MOVING MOUSE you can change the angle of the profile
look at this



LMB + MOVING THE MOUSE also do the same but smoother

scale up or down is with S key

with holding d you can control thickness
look at this



you can use the rebool and difference option as well here


one more thing before i end this there is a option called cursor depth you can active it with D KEY
base on your curser postion it will cut the shape into your object
look at this two examples so you understand better



i hope this is clear


one bad thing about this is that you can not make your own profile and save it somewhere for later
but no problem when blender 3.6 comes we will have a better and more advanced cutting tool called SDF which is better

so for now learn this until then i make another guide on that


-i hope i explained everything
and nothing here is UNCLEAR

-comment if you need any help

enjoy and have nice day and dont waste your 25 $ on a add-on instead buy cyberpunk 2077 on sale enjoy that.
