Topostudy - Compressor Hole

Sometimes I get obsessed with troublesome areas and their topological solutions, workflow and optimization. In this video I go over the process of cutting a hole into a rounded cylinder and taking out an insertion piece and attempt to set up a "coincidence" and failed.

I came here to make my day better! Best humor channel! ❤

[@masterxeon1001]

glad you enjoy!

[@ESD8000]

that edge loop trick will certainly come in handy! great to vertimergi still be a honour guest for every occasion

[@masterxeon1001]

it sure is

[@AriaRedux]

Really Great info! Thank you! I was quite literally just making a handle with a bevel like this and running into some issues that this helped solve. Kind of bizarre . Thanks! :D

[@masterxeon1001]

Glad it helped!

[@primefx1977]

HIS EVERY VIDEO HAS A LOT OF GREATEST INFOS 📖📖📖

[@3enny3oy]

Thanks for another great exploration! It’s great seeing problems derived from real world objects.
Just reflecting on the bit at 5:40; as a matter of personal preference I would have removed the problem faces and used bridge edge loops here. I guess the whole point of these videos though is there are many ways to reach the same result and taking the harder path often leads to new insights.
Anyway, that’s my dichotomy of geometry retopology philosophy for the day 😂

[@masterxeon1001]

Thanks for sharing!

[@monles2352]

So clear and fun!

[@masterxeon1001]

Glad you think so!

[@stillfree47]

I knew about E slide but F? Sheeet blender knows how to party. 🥳 🎉 🪅

[@masterxeon1001]

gotta real those small af letters!

[@pauljs75]

Been like that since the 2.6x workflow. (And probably older.)

[@SZMIDEL]

Love your commentary dude!

[@masterxeon1001]

aw tanks!

[@JordanMossy]

Cool that you are spending the time to teach people some sub-d workflows, not as common today.
one thing I noticed about the cut you made is its more of a cylinder remaining in the centre of the cut

[@masterxeon1001]

good observation!

[@PaulChabot]

damn you, but thank you... just bought mesh machine... lol EDIT: Just figured out that split move you did... DAMN...! amazing...I feel the boxcutter/hardops/meshmachine combo will be a powerhouse..

[@masterxeon1001]

hopefully you enjoy!

[@ghostriley22]

I know Bevel+profile=1 is most common way to add support loops.
But there is also another tool called offset edge slide which will always give you edge loops (equidistant) on either side of selected edge loop

[@masterxeon1001]

i think i discussed it into a previous segment.

[@bleepblooplucaname]

hit the bell for these studies feel free to wake me up in the middle of the night

[@masterxeon1001]

*ding*

[@darrenberkey7017]

"Tore up from the floor up." 😂

[@masterxeon1001]

it sure was...

[@peaceloveforever88]

cool

[@masterxeon1001]

fun times

[@peaceloveforever88]

@@masterxeon1001 yehhhhhhhh, good week to you my friend

[@LordoftheFleas]

This variable radius bevelling technique actually also works with the bevel-modifier workflow: just set the width type to percent.

[@masterxeon1001]

ah yes. I forget. But it fails in so many cases its almost a misnomer for me at this point. I was trying to make it work on circular cuts it but it required linearity for it to behave correct with the guidance it was being offered.

[@arko3822]

MeshMachine should improve the Ui of his addon....thats a lot many uns packed into the menu....icons would have been better there

[@masterxeon1001]

it does the job well. Just misclicked.
