Why we like it

Quick Bevel earns its place in the Superhive library by folding the bevel, auto smooth and harden normals setup into single-button presses, with a choice of sharp or dull bevels, documentation and a demo video across Blender 2.9 to 2.93.

What is Quick Bevel?

Quick Bevel is a hard surface modeling add-on for Blender from Vaguely Butter, built around one-click beveling. Rather than working through separate steps to set up a bevel, then auto smooth, then harden normals, the add-on collects those into a single button press.

The tool offers buttons for different results: click for a sharp bevel or a dull bevel, without adjusting settings each time to find the look you want. The idea is to skip fiddling with cutter menus and reach a beveled result in a single click.

Quick Bevel runs on Blender 2.9, 2.91, 2.92 and 2.93, and is released under the GPL license. Documentation is included, and a demo video is available. The add-on has recorded over 20 sales on Superhive and is listed here as free.

Who is Quick Bevel best for?

Quick Bevel is best for blender users who work with bevels often and want the bevel, auto smooth and harden normals setup reduced to a single click.

How much does Quick Bevel cost?

Quick Bevel is completely free to download and use.

Which Blender versions does Quick Bevel support?

Quick Bevel supports Blender versions 2.9, 2.91, 2.92 and 2.93. If you're running one of these releases, the add-on fits the version range listed by the developer. Newer Blender builds aren't covered by the versions given here, so it's worth checking the developer's page before installing to confirm current compatibility. Since the add-on is released under the GPL license, you also have room to adapt it within those terms if a later version requires adjustment.

Is Quick Bevel free to use?

Quick Bevel is listed here as free, though licensing and pricing can change over time. The add-on is distributed under the GPL license, which governs how it can be used and shared. For the current terms and any updated pricing, the developer's page is the place to check before you download. It has recorded over 20 sales on Superhive, and documentation plus a demo video are available.

What license is Quick Bevel released under?

Quick Bevel is released under the GPL license. Under the GPL you're able to use, study and modify the add-on within the terms of that license. Quick Bevel works with Blender 2.9, 2.91, 2.92 and 2.93, and documentation is included with the download. The listing records over 20 sales on Superhive. For the full license text and any specific conditions attached to your use, the developer's page is the best reference to check.

Does Quick Bevel handle auto smooth and harden normals too?

Quick Bevel combines the bevel with the auto smooth and harden normals options, so you don't set each one up separately. Instead of working through cutter menus and configuring those settings individually, you press a button and the add-on applies them together. It also gives you a choice between a sharp bevel and a dull bevel, each on its own button, so you can pick a result without adjusting settings by hand. This is the core of what the add-on does across the Blender 2.9x versions it supports.
