Adding a bevel to an object in Blender can be quickly done with the Bevel modifier. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

  1. Select the Object
    Begin by selecting the object you want to apply the bevel to.
  2. Add the Bevel Modifier
    Navigate to the modifier tab and add a Bevel modifier to your object. Initially, this will apply a bevel to the entire object.
  3. Adjust Settings for Precision
    • Change the Limit Method to Weight to control which edges are beveled.
    • Adjust the Segments value to make the bevel smoother.
