    Way back were the addon was free on gumroad I still decided to buy it on blendermarket just to respect the dev. at a minimum. Now after a while I wanted to download the new version and saw its not possible anymore. Even if I think it is more worth then the dime that days. I'm a bit disappointed now. Over this I also bought MeshMachine and DecalMachine which were one of the more expensive addons but they didn't got the love like this one in updates. I was expecting some day machin3tools may be a part of meshmachine while the majority of features fit into it. I think if one bought the big bundle it would be better to let him machin3tools insteat "if you had payed 3.5 at gumroad".

    Beside this I think prices for addons are running out of controll (In general... not just this one). Mine are in total now more then a complete tool like Plasticity which with I could do most of the stuff better then with addons for blender. I m just hobbyist but I think this addon market as is will not be good for blender. People will switch to payed tools if they get more for the money.

    A true pillar of Blender—thank you, Machin3!

    Can't wait to see HyperCursor in action!
    Can I hope for a 2025 release to the public?

    There are a few times in life when you look in the rear view mirror and realize you've been stupid. And if you could go back in time, you would... Well, I started using Blender a few years back and I was adamant in my conviction that using addons would be a bad idea. It would halt my progress and I would become lazy... Oh how wrong I was. Thanks stooooopid! That is a lot of time I will never get back.

    Machine3Tools is perfect example of an addon that will NOT stop your progress (or make you lazy). It will just make your life better. It will not stop you from learning, it will just make it easier to accomplish your goals of taking what's inside your head and putting it into the 3D Viewport. I bought the Deus Ex version because; frankly ... that's just an excellent name for a tier.

    I saw some youtube videos stating that this was a free addon, but that it recently changed. I must say that I fully support that decision. This addon is just so damn good and it must take an insane amount of time to keep it up to date with new versions of Blender. I would hate to see it discontinued. and hopefully getting a few bucks per sale will prevent that from happening. From my point of view the set of tools contained in this package are ESSENTIAL to Blender.

    Also, I really appreciate how the developer takes the time to write real release notes with videos and examples. It's so darn helpful. Love it!

    If I could go back in time, I would tell myself -- Learn vanilla blender for six months, then buy Machin3tools! It will be the best spent 15 bucks in your life! And If I would argue that I can't afford it... I'd tell myself to cancel that Netflix subscription. Which I didn't use for a year being busy learning blender anyway...

    Long story short... I would recommend anyone just starting out with Blender, to first learn the basics, then get Machine3Tools and revel as soon as possible! And for people already familiar with Blender. Well, if you don't have Machin3tools, get it! And don't thank me; when you start modelling rainbows and sunshine, thank the developer.

    After using MT for over a month, I can safely say that it might be the best add-on you can buy whenever you do hard surface modeling, sculpting, shading or scene building. You have so many amazing tools that speed up working in blender. Pie menus are just like a third arm for blender and provide everything that a more advanced blender user would ask for.
