In this video I demonstrate how to use the Shatter tool, RBD Glued Objects, and Debri Shelf Tools. Houdini’s Shelf Tool can be very handy sometimes if you need something on the go and right out of the box. The simplicity and preset parameters make very decent ready to go scenes with a few mouse clicks.

 

Try to be cautious of your mouse cursor. The Shelf Tool heavily relies on the position of the mouse cursor.
