Simple Cutting

A cube or a cylinder, sized in metres, parented to the wall it cuts. The boolean stays live, so an opening is still a number you can change — not a hole you have to model twice.

WALL — CUTTERS LIVE 1 400 r 520 4 800

Pick the wall, add the cutter

The target is a mesh object you choose. Every cutter you add is linked to it, listed in the panel and placed at the cursor if you want it there.

Auto-fit through the wall

Depth is measured off the wall with a margin, so a cutter always goes all the way through instead of leaving a skin behind.

Apply when you are sure

Keep the cutters while the plan is moving; apply the boolean when it is not. Auto-delete after apply is one checkbox.

The panel is the whole product.

No launcher, no wizard, no modal you have to escape from. Pick a target, set three numbers, add the cutter. Everything else — the collection, the modifier, the naming — is handled where you cannot see it, which is where it belongs.

PRESETS

Small, Standard and Wide for the openings you place most.

DISPLAY

Switch a cutter’s viewport style so the wall stays readable.

COLLECTION

Cutters are gathered per wall, out of the way of the outliner.

CLEAN-UP

Delete one cutter or all of them, with the modifier going too.

INSTALL

Three steps, one restart.

The same for every add-on here, which is the point of putting them in one place.
