Discover the most efficient way to merge objects in Blender with this tutorial by Josh from Blender Bros. Learn why using Ctrl+J can create more work than necessary and how Union Booleans provide a cleaner, faster solution for combining geometry.

Key Steps Covered:

• Why Ctrl+J is problematic: Joining objects doesn’t fuse geometry—it only merges them in Object Mode.
• Manual merging pitfalls: Patching vertices manually is time-consuming and error-prone.
• Union Boolean workflow: Use the Exact Solver for precise merging, followed by Merge by Distance and Limited Dissolve for cleanup.
• Advanced example: Applying Union Booleans to complex shapes for seamless integration.

Master this technique to streamline your hard surface modeling workflow.
