Insert & Nut Pocket Maker

LayerMechanic in Modeling


Installation

1. Download insert_nut_pocket_maker-1.0.1.zip. Do not unzip it. 2. In Blender 5.2: Edit → Preferences → Get Extensions → ▾ (top right) → Install from Disk… and choose the ZIP. (Dragging the ZIP into the Blender window also works.) 3. Check that Insert & Nut Pocket Maker is enabled. 4. In the 3D Viewport press N and open the Pocket Maker tab. 5. Optional: open insert_nut_pocket_maker_demo.blend and follow the text block *Pocket Maker - read me*.

Updating: install the new ZIP the same way; it replaces the old version. Your pockets are stored in your .blend files and are kept.

Uninstalling: Preferences → Add-ons → Insert & Nut Pocket Maker → ▾ → Uninstall. Pockets already cut stay in your files as Boolean cuts.
