Top 3 SU plugins

tfdesign

Why?

Dave R

Weld: To weld line segments so they behave as single entities for selection purposes and to reduce the need to soften/smooth edges.
CutList: Nearly every project I draw these days is a plan for a piece of furniture or cabinets and my clients require cut lists so they can quote for materials. I could do it manually but Cut List takes only a couple of seconds.
BZ Spline: For drawing non-circular curves.

I dont know if my most used plugins are my favorites but anyway:
Put on layer (I use it ALL the time to keep my file organised.)
Weld (I've edited it so I have it under the right click menu)
Joint pushpull (Could also be Extrude edge by vector)

Wow Pilou! That's beautiful!

EscapeArtist

Based on use:

Weld
Remove unused edges
BZ spline (all)

Based on coolest/usefulness (IMO)

SD&S
Curviloft
JPP

All of the above make SU easier and better to use.

I already gave you three--for this week. I also like to see how well I can do some operations from scratch. However, I don't think Weld has a native substitute.

The 3 more fun (for me
Grow by Tig perfect for iteration volumes with multiple size, Move, rotate
Protrude by Jim Foltz funny automatic exotic generations
Random Painter by Chris Fullmer for some joyous variations of colors

3 in the same time

Great feedback guys - thanks. I find it interesting how everyone likes something different. This short thread has generated a list of 30+ plugins!

Default Layer Gemometry

I totally agree on this one. It is invaluable to me. Move all geometry to layer 0 while keeping all groups, images, components on the layer they were on. Absolute must for clean modeling habits.

I gather you mean to say "move all loose geometry, that is, not grouped or turned into a component".
