This will fit well in my kitchen scene alongside my donut, coffee cup, and anvil.
Lol the anvil😂
how does anvil suppose to be in the kitchen??
@@RJohn-sq4jn if you put most blender gurus tutorial models in one scene they will be in a kitchen

Well Tom,
T H A T S T H E J O K E
Each new part will be uploaded daily until completion :)
Thank you so much♥♥♥
I already completed it Guru
Why you always starts basic intermediate easy ploy tutorial make something advance to boost your subscribe workflow ✔️
Please start something new tutorial along This In Home Quarantine Time
Like Modeling Sculpting Rigging Animation
Camera Tricks
By explaining each and every step yeah like intermediate ✔️✔️✔️🙄
thanks blender dad
Finally getting into your tutorials again. This one feels particularly close to my heart. I'll chair-ish it...
I'll see myself out.
NO! COME BACK!!!!
get out and stay out
you got a true gigglesnort for that pun!
good one
Really enjoyed this one for some reason.
Thank you for existing and for working so hard to put all of this on CZcams for free. You are an absolute angel, and you've helped me feel like my dreams of modelling and rigging complex figures can actually be realized! I wouldn't think it possible without these simple, clear, and fun tutorials. Thank you. THANK YOU!
If Blender Guru did not exist or carried on making tutorials with growing momentum, a lot of people would not have learned Blender!
Including me
I don't know why but I've been avoiding most channels with blender tutorials until now and I mainly learned blender on my own so I'm in the exact opposite boat, but I'm just one man that feels weird about writing this on youtube.
And now I see why I should watch more videos.
Or in other’s cases like mine for example, they would’ve learned the basic basics of Blender and never stuck with it without him helping us take it further and helping us have fun
Wise words indeed.
Yes, watching blender guru tutorial series is like having a new season of your show come out
tell me about it. :D
I'm thinking about waiting until the whole season is out then binge-blending it.
lol
honestly though, for a lot of people this IS our (interactive) TV viewing
What I love the most about this particular video is when you tell us that you remade this chair 11 times for the tutorial. This is something that I really appreciate, the effort and the honesty. I've been using Blender for about a month and what I love about it is that there are tons and tons of ways to get to the same point. You'll never stop exploring with Blender and you demonstrated with this video. Thank you
on 17:08, he has a ton of 'votrecies' (?) and it took me forever to find out why i didn't have that many
just uncheck the "optimal display" checkbox on the modifier box thing
Hehe, glad I could help so many people!
TAKE MY GOLD
Best info !
LOVE YOU
U ARE A SAINT
Thank you!
From donuts to chairs, you're creating a new generation...
Sounds like that generation won't be very healthy from all of the donuts they're eating and sitting they're doing
@@michaeluhlemann4964 I think @AndrewPrice should start doing character animation mainly run cycles and jogging, I'm sure they will recover and live healthy ever after.
@@michaeluhlemann4964 hahahaha
I came here directly from creating my donut and coffee which turned out pretty well with me even adding background images to make it look like I was sitting in a coffee shop, no chairs however as I had no idea how to make one.
@@michaeluhlemann4964 ok boomer
The guy's behind most of the people starting blender 💆🏻♂️
He was for me :)
He was for me as well :)
For me as well :)
Same here
Same! 😁
Let's just appreciate the work he puts into this. Like making this chair 11 times before this video. That's some amazing dedication to teach us blender! You are an insane gem to the community to share us this!
Its his job. Lets appreciate anyone that puts work within his job.
I agree with Dimitri. I don't think all the attempts I've ever made on Blender have added up to 11 times...probably 8 or 9. But then again, I'm not a teacher; just a hobbyist. That being said, in an era when every child born after 1995 is being taught that you must _always_ "have fun" in everything you do, and that working hard is a vice (even if you're paid to work!), it's good to see there are still people like BlenderGuru giving it 100%... even if it _is_ just "his job".
,
I've watched this several times. Nothing on CZcams comes close to explaining intricacies of blender modeling like this video does. I love all your videos, thanks!
First: Donut , coffee cup and table.
Now: Chair.
Later: House.
Much later: Universe.
Pls I want that
How to model the entire life size universe in 5 minutes
PS. Andrew has made a tutorial about making the Earth already, so...
Not a house yet, he need to start with a cafeteria !
It's all coming together now. ;)
The upcoming generation will say,It all started with the freaking Chair
Only OG's will remember the donut.
It all started with a freakin cube in the midle
who would have thunk the matrix started in blender lol
@@BertoLaDK xD
Donut people unite
guru: "press ctrl+R to add a loopcut"
me, who uses a second monitor: ctrl+R
my browser: refreshes the video
SAME LMAO
yeah happened 4 times
not only that but the numpad key are driving me insane.
Instructions unclear, I reset my life and got transported to another world
🤣😹😹😹😹😹
I completed your donut tutorial then went to other channels to follow their beginner tutorials, but finally found that your beginner tutorial was the best so far. No one works logically and perfects his work as you did. Thank you so much! Now I will follow this too!
The God has graced with his presence again
Thanks for the likes, guys! 😊
Praise be to the monkey head!
Who else has been blendering for years, but still enjoys beginner tutes as there's always something to learn? Thankyou for this series, Andrew, as I am sure there will be a few great tips along the way.
@aaronsdavis exactlyyy
I just really suck and I need to learn
When he makes the reference images transparent, the 'use alpha' checkbox is now 'transparency' at the bottom of the 'Empty' section. Hope this helps!
Thank you!
Thank you very much! I just started blender and i was spending time researching how to get alpha,but now u told me and now I know!Thank you!
THANKS . I WAS SEARCHING FOR IT FOR 2 HRS
legend
Thanks They changed some stuff in 2.9
Starting this after following the donut tutorial till the end.
Thank you so much for these tutorials, Andrew!
*YOU ARE AMAZING!*
"I deleted them. I deleted them all. They're gone, every single one of them. And not just the cube, but the light and the camera, too. They're like animals, and I deleted them like animals. I hate them!"
-Andrew
Jannis Kr. ATACK OF THE CLONES REFERENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"I hate sprinkles, they get everywhere."
RIP LIFE :(
Thanos is pleased
you mean you deleted your entire hard disk?
Great stuff man! As a lead 3D artist with a lot of experience in Blender, Max, etc, I still find myself watching even your "beginner" videos from time to time. Really appreciate the effort you put in to share your knowledge with us.
Brilliant, I’ve done a few tutorials and modelled a few things so know my way around the basic Blender commands by now but in this series Andrew explains why he did it one way and not another. It is showing me how I’ve been approaching quite a few things the wrong way and better ways of working.
I have been using Blender for 1 year now. And the things you listed at the beginning are pretty much all I had to suffer with. Thank you!
You make people learn AND laugh. You got all qualities of the perfect teacher man, thank you so much !
I JUST FINISHED THE FULL DONUT TUTORIAL LAST NIGHT, THIS IS PERFECT TIMING HOLY-
I've watched whole series and would recommend everybody to watch. Far way better than ".....in 1 minute" tutorials. He'll teach every technique used in this series in depth and elaborate pros and cons of doing same thing with different techniques. He's real guru.
I just can't thank you enough for making this beginner tutorials. I am a civil engineering student who probably wouldn't have learned much without your help!!!
Wouldn't it be possible to still use the bevel method for the edge, but just add an Edge Split modifier so the shading won't be all wonky?
did u finish the tutorial with that method?
Again there are a thousand ways to do it.
I like this because you won't have a million loop cuts to deal with
Literally such a good method! Thx
yo i love this trick, thank you!
5:49 "Use Alpha" has been changed to "Transparency" in version 2.91. It's at the bottom of the section before "Image"
Thank you so much buddy!!!!!!!!!! I was scrolling through here just for this one comment😂!
for me its "Opacity" but yeah
Now it's just Opacity.
@@EdNorty 👌👌👌👌
@@EdNorty 2023. Still Opacity.
GOD THANK YOU, I WAS ALMOST GIVING UP ON FINDING THE FUNDAMENTALS! I believe that fundamentals really take you to another level as a professional. I found it here, in a chair tutorial, thank you, Guru!
You are very clarifying and it is obvious that you do a lot of practice before you show us a Blender video, which helps us not to be confused through the process. Thank you very much !
He was perfecting this tutorial for us by modelling it 11 times. Wow! And it's free.
this is perfect timing. I've just started learning blender last night. I started on the donut and coffee tutorial and this couldn't have come at a better time.
Literally the same here. Can we be Facebook friends so that we could periodically share the happiness and troubles dealing with learning Blender?
Just wanted to say thank you for doing these tutorials. I just picked up Blender 2.8 and finished your Donut tutorial and am immediately moving on to this one. I have a tiny bit of modeling experience with Silo but that program has not had any updates in ages and I've been looking for a new modeler to be my go-to. So far Blender looks like its gonna be it and your tutorials are making that decision a lot easier.
I have a feeling you're a very fun dude to work with. Also a very good teacher, delving into the smallest details, aimed at kickstarting a beginner's path to success.
was trying to decide between retaking blender or starting japanese, retaking blender it is then
generic username :v I think Japanese is easier 😭🤣😂
why not both?
@@astondelle3892 Who has two lifetimes xD
both is better, the best break is switching between things

Even though this video was uploaded 8 minutes ago and it has almost 18 minutes duration, i'm gonna smash the like button right now
Thank you for providing so much content and showing us how awesome Blender can be. You're a true friend of the Internet and humanity.
becoming a somewhat known 3D artist and collaboratively working with others who create avatars for games like vrchat or neos VR etc. and starting to have a bit of a bussiness going, this tutorial is deffinitely going to yield me a lot of knowledge, i am very thankful for you concidering to upload such informative content for free, we love you guru
Finally, a place to sit and eat my doughnut.
😂
Hey Andrew, just wanted to let you know that thanks to you, I pursued my passion for 3D modelling. I have been around your channel ever since the "create a spaceship interior video" lol and have stuck around since then. I am currently at VFS doing the 3D animation and VFX program and wanted to let you know that your name goes around campus all the time. I'm aware that you don't know your viewers but when they talk about you, it's always a feeling of pride like: "hey, I know him, he's the one who got me here"!. you've made a huge impact on both the Blender community as well as the VFX industry and if it weren't for that one innocuous blender video that I watched 8 years ago, I might've never been here pursuing my passion. thank you!
This is an incredibly reassuring comment to read as someone starting to pursue my personal passion. I believe I can trust this guy now.
14:00 Something I don't even see in my college courses, just powerpoints from online. I am glad I got a great teacher for a new hobby I am certainly loving! Thanks for the vids, even two years later.
No one has explained sub-surf modifier this elegant.. Thank you so much, finally, I understood what it is doing!!
I'm danish and I have heard a lot of Australians and Americans try to pronounce the "ø", and I think you did the best...
4:50 just click alt r to do that easily
Oh of course! I keep forgetting that one. Thanks
Alt + s resets scale
Alt + g resets location
I think there are many more hotkeys with Alt to reset things.
@@thyros_ Alt + life
Blender Guru Many of your products seem expensive probably because you grew up in Australia where an individual dollar is slightly less valuable than in the US. Where you live 100 dollars is like 65 dollars for us.
@@not_herobrine3752 Good one.
big up for making these great, in-depth tutorials available for free! It is much appreciated
blender guru's tutorials are the only ones software tutorials on the planet that are actually fun to watch
"The wizards of blender"- blender guru
it's like that babylonian song that spoke about "the ancient people"
"I will delete not just the cube but everything" -Blender Guru
RIP -Default Cube -Default Lamp -Default camera -everything in the universe
you can do it by deleteing all thing and go to file :) >> Defaults >>> then save startup file.. found it somewhere in YT 😂😂 Daniel f something guy i guess
Execute Order 66.

disable the grid too
The official Blender CZcams channel sent me here...your tutorials are way easier to follow.
I just watched this whole series and I literally would not have been the same without it
Hi finally its here.. Beginner's tutorial that everyone waiting for after their donut
Now we know why he hasn't been posting! Hes been working on another great tutorial!
Love your tutorials. Easy to understand, but still filled with tons of "useful" information. I love how at 14:00 you explain how you did about 11 chairs exploring different ways to make them to show us the best method. This proves your dedication. Love it
Every video on Blender, yours always helps me the best. Thank you!
Hey! 1:00 AM! Right at my favorite time for learning Blender
Complete modelling novice here, though I'm fairly experienced as an audio engineer!
I'd love it if you applied a gentle highpass filter to the low-low frequencies of your voiceover- little subbass frequencies are captured by your movement, and on a speaker system that can represent them it was initially freaking me out as I thought someone was moving about in the house XD
When it comes to learning blender, Blender Guru is a must watch ! Thanks man !
Even if you're not new to blender, it's nice to watch these things, when you model you form habits, and sometimes watching the basics can break and reforge the bad ones.
Hey Andrew, loving the series and all your videos on Blender. I have just started learning and am finding the way you teach to be very helpful and informative. I like that you explain why something is happening. Helps to understand. I did have an idea that you may like. I have found when I learn something new it is helpful to see the "figuring out" part of a problem...if that makes sense. I understand that this is not good for CZcams tutorials though as it would be too long of a format. I did think though, in those times when you are test running how to make the chair tutorial you could stream it on CZcams. I think you said you had test ran it 11 times or so for this tutorial. I would like to see the problems and solving you in-counted along the way when you did those tests. A stream would be perfect for that. Just a thought.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks for another great tutorial Andrew. Really loving the archviz focused tutorials
Man!! Im here because of ive finished the donnut. pretty much aweseome and aducational. gess id have another 5 days watching you!!
With PureRef, select you operating system.
Then in the pay for section, select the custom amount and delete the euro amount and input 0.
Then the download will say FREE....
I didnt realize this for a long time, hope this helps :)
changed it to -50 and u will even get 50 dollar for free LOL!

You Are God...!!
Or you could pay for it and help them with their development costs...
@@82christos imagine unironically believing this
I can’t believe he’s doing these for free. Just started level 3 of the donut. Thanks Andrew!
1.24 million subscribers and you think he is not making any money? Doing it all for free? Naive at best.
@@TheHateSpeechChannel It doesn't cost us anything. There are a lot of places that charge subscription fees or sell the videos.
Youtubing is a job, He gets paid for views & he finds customers for the stuff he is selling. i don't think its right to say he just gave this away for free. It's not like he gets nothing out of it. He is a huge help to the blender community that's for sure.
Simple but amazing :). Thank you so much for doing this tutorial. It's nice spend time learning and joy with pleasant people this days.
Thanks Andrew ^^
can we all pitch in and buy this man enough beers to never run out ever again.. toooo thankful!!!
At the end of this modelling tutorial series... I'm gonna put a donut on that chair. And Andrew if you're seeing this, I love your tutorials!
won't we all?
@@neoncantaim1887 This is gonna be legen... Wait for it... donut! Legendonut!
And me... i'm gonna put that chair on a giant donut !!!!! muahahahahahahahahaahhh !!!!!! 😃
Go and follow Arrimus 3D and you can put a Goomba on a chair, holding a coffee cup, with a doughnut on his head :P
@aaronsdavis THAT WILL BE AWESOME
You are AWESOME Blender Guru!!! Helped me a lot to begin as a 3D artist, also created a channel for my progress!!
Dont give up!!
@Maselek touché
You actually work as a 3D artist? that's so cool! how long did you practice for?
"You could rotate it now...if you hate life.." haha. I love your tutorials! They really are "pay-quality" tutorials for free..amazing!
I just started using blender after years of taking off from our of any kind, I was an IT manager at a Wall Street firms and life just got in the way. But I had heart issues and heart surgery and can’t do That job anymore and now have a much more mundane in job which gives me the time to work on what I really like to do and that’s art. Well this will never be my job or career as I am an old man now, I get a lot of joy from making the things that are in my imagination. I even remodeled my home on the computer first and then gave those plans to my carpenters. I’m just getting into blender and wanted to say thanks you’re the best.
Yes more blender its so amazing that all this is FREE!!!!!
@aaronsdavis yup
What a nice personality you have. You make Blender fun! It's even better than gaming a.t.m. ;-)
Now let me get back to that chairleg...
Greetings from the Netherlands.
Amazing! Your explanation is really simple and clear! I only set subdivision modifier, but I didn't understand how it works until I watch this tutorial~ Thank you so much，it is really helpful~! :)
In version 2.92 When he makes the reference images transparent, the 'use alpha' checkbox is now 'Opacity' at the bottom of the 'Empty' section which is set to 1 change it to 0.5. Hope this helps!
I LOVE YOU
Thanks :D
8:15 the inner line IS the bevel/round. Probably the blueprints were made with a CAD program, like Soliwdorws or similar, and the drawing tools in CAD programs tend to represent those rounds/fillets like that.
I HAVE WAITED SO LONG FOR THIS. My donuts were epic.
Just finished my Donut and I'm super hyped to continue here :)
Prevision Blender Generation: "Yeah, my passion for blender started with a donut."
New Generation: "I am more of a Beginner chair guy myself"
I started with the CG Fast track sword.
@@TravisHi_YT That makes two of us.
Am I the only that gets excited when he mentions something I learned in the donut tutorial?
wonderful tutorials, you not only showed me my mistakes, but showed me how to correct them
Thanks for this! You're genius! I really love the way you explain things by comparing with other things.
12:50 andrew : WROOONNNGGG!
Me usually using that method in ages in my modelling history : *surprised pikachu*
**Donut tutorials exist for ages**
Incoming chair model tutorials: "I'm 'bout to end this man's career...."
This one's a sequel, not a replacement
Blender modeling: The Sequel
blender guru made both tutorials
so its no going to end it it will make his channel better
You are so amazing. You should be a teacher. I have gone to thousand dollar summer programs that don’t teach as well as you. Thank you for giving people something to do during quarantine.
this is one of the best tutorials on the internets!!
blenderguru: deletes everything cube included
a few moments later: adds the cube back :D
That's basically blender for ya
"Ø" is pronounced like the vowel in "burn". "Søborg" sounds kind of like "suh-borg". :)
Really? That's nice to learn
I know it from the band BLØF
At least that is the closest phoneme in English
Things that I didn't know I needed to learn
Ah, so like the Ö in Finnish
I love this tutorial series, I've went through it like 3 times.
Second time you said "Søborg" you actually nailed it:) Regards from Denmark
"you can rotate this if you hate life"
Me, who thought I knew what I was doing an went ahead of the tutorial: *--__--*
LOL
That bevel on the chair leg is called a fillet in engineering. said like it's spelled, not like fish fillet. It is used extensively to smooth things out on parts
You could rotate this if you hated life, haha 11:18 . Love your sense of humor. Thanks for everything you do to advance the technology! I think you get this, but you really make things possible for people that would otherwise be unreachable. Thank you thank you...
We love your channel man! thanks ever so much for all these free valuable informations
Since you are so kind to teach all of us this magnificent trait. Let me teach you something in return. The letter Ø, are pronounced like the sound you yourself made when you said furniture. Just after the F, that vowel you said in furniture, is that Ø, and it's used in Danish, Norwegian and Swedish, although those Swedish people use Ö instead, it's still the same sound.
And while we're at it, let's do Æ (Ä in Sweden) and Å as well. Æ, think of Savvy, that should take care of that sound. And Å sounds like the sound used in taught. Incidentally tough covers Ø again. Which in Norwegian is tøff.
OK, onward with the tutorial.
❤️👍
10:55
For anyone who has trouble placing the orange dot (origin point) to the bottom of the chair leg:
First place the 3D cursor to where you want the orange dot with Shift+RightClick
And then right-click to the object > set origin > origin to the 3D Cursor
God bless ya
you have to go back to object mode and them move the object, this way the dot will move with the object
i think you're the best at telling what hotkeys to use on youtube ....great work
I just realized this was uploaded on my birthday! Thank you for my quarantine birthday present that I'm just now opening lol!

@@travisimon3269
thank you, thank you
I'll be here all evening
still waiting...
Honestly I tried to stop doing that because I felt that I was taking it more at a prescriptivist approach rather than a descriptivist one, so I wouldn't be learning much if I had waited for every thing he did.
Hence I tried just listening to a whole piece of dialogue and seeing what he did with it, then thought through what each purpose of each move was or each process, then see what I needed, then go to that exact part to see how he did it.
This way I'm still following through the tutorial but absorbing how you do certain things and execute them rather than just waiting on Andrew to do something and then follow exactly. Just wanted to share.
@@jinsory5582 i am also doing just the way you explained
how many tutorial series to you want to make?
blender guru: yes
