    It's pretty wild how you can turn 2 cylinders into so many different things using modifiers. I know Blender can do all these things but getting my brain to think this way is often a struggle haha. You model something unnecessary complex while for your use case you could of also just merged 2 cubes, slap some modifiers on and no one would notice the difference lol.

    when you set the loop cuts to 2.7, I couldn't figure out how you get them to be mirrored. I have looked it up but so far I'm just finding recommendations to use the mirror modifier when I think that isn't want you're doing. How do I get the 2 loop cuts to move in opposite directions?

    Interesting method, but I still think a Boolean to SubD approach is quicker. Union the two shapes, then Bevel the connecting edge (profile = 1) to protect the borders and then cleanup. You can get an identical result to what you showed but without having to faff with vertex groups and modifiers.

    Dear Mr. McGlasham, I wish you and your lovely family a Merry Christmas! I hope you are doing well; it has been quite some time since your last video. There’s something about your tutorials that fills me with joy and excitement. I can’t quite pinpoint what it is, but it makes your content stand out from the vast majority of polygonal modeling content on UA-cam. I truly hope you’ll return to creating Blender content. I’d also love to support you on Patreon, if you decide to create an account. Warm regards from Kyiv

    Nice tutorial. I wish I had someone I could ask questions when stuck. I've been learning for about a week now, but I went straight into trying to repair an expensive model military truck from CGT. Its mesh is quite bad and non-manifold, open in places, see-through from one side, or has parts inside other parts, like the steering box, etc. It might be easier rebuilding it in Fusion; Blender is a whole new ball game, but I am enjoying it. I get stressed out by videos contradicting each other, so I'm looking for someone good at explaining, like yourself, who sticks to their videos. cheers I'm going to try this to rebuild some mesh and clean up hopefully haha.

    Some things are different in my version of blender, but it was a helpful tutorial nonetheless. Your instructions were very clear and I could fill the gaps to create a slightly different, yet acceptable result, which says a lot given I'm completely new to blender. Thank you, and I'm sure the rest of your tutorials will be just as informative.
