Our 3D backhoe model is progressing quickly toward the final product. Progressing past the initial block out stages, we're starting to finalize the hard-surface pieces of the machine. In part 4, I'd like to cover the creation of hydraulic lines (like I said I would last time), answer any questionable modeling situations like in part 3, and / or simply model in real time for an hour or two. However given that I'm predicting this a month away, these topics are subject to change.
This complex model is a collaborative effort between instructor and Citizen members. If you're interested in the project please jump over to the Forum Thread to learn more!

Terminal is the legit way to customize your computer to have a permanent dark mode, where like nothing works anymore haha
I've tried copying nodes like that but not since I've opened 2.83
Oh no, Terminal is for hackers, I get freaked out by that black screen with letters
Karen, I think you can copy nodes. For materials, you may still need to link or append.
In PC I can double click and it opens two blenders, but Mac has never allowed me to do that
If you have windows you can just middle click the application in the taskbar and it opens another one.
[Q] wonders if I can copy materials like that
made me think... would there be a way to "batch unskew"?
not edge by edge I mean...
I have opened 3 blenders during the jellyfish course was super helpful.
If you open from file browser it opens a new blender
