Incorrect bolt sizes BoltFactory add-on

Incorrect bolt sizes BoltFactory add-on

The incorrect bolt length is indeed due to the blender modelling, so that might be considered "expected", however it's not expected for a mechanical fixing. The length of a bolt should be the…

Fix #83322: Scale factor issue

There was a ticket or comment saying that 50mm was too small for the maximal bolt size. The user wanted to make a bolt that was 2 inches which needed 50.8mm

Built-in presets missing when switching from 4.1 to 4.2. - missing paths

Presets for all extensions in 4.2 are missing: see #124020. The fix will need a couple of new lines in the init def register() in each extension.

Archimesh: generates invalid meshes

Further testing with my suggestion shows that while Blender no longer crashes the mesh ends up with a non-contiguous surface. The root to fixing this is going to be understanding the generation of…

Archimesh: generates invalid meshes

I can stop it crashing with an edit to the python addon :) In another toolbox I saw the use of mesh.validate()

Add the following lines at the end of remove_doubles in achm_tools.py
