Rig Flexible Cables in Blender Using Hook Modifiers and Constraints

In this video, we’re taking the next big step in our Blender light ring project — hanging the light ring from the ceiling using a fully controllable cable rig! You’ll learn how to use the Hook Modifier and Rotation Constraint to create flexible, realistic cables that move naturally without stretching or deforming. ✅ What you’ll learn: How to attach cables to objects using Empties How to control mesh deformation with the Hook Modifier How to prevent unwanted rotation using Limit Rotation Constraint How to build a clean, non-destructive rig for cables, ropes, and chandelier wires Pro techniques for organizing your Outliner and scene setup 🔥 By the end, you’ll have a perfectly rigged cable that connects your light ring to the ceiling — ready for animation and realistic lighting setups! 💡 Next Episode: We’ll add two more cables evenly spaced around the ring for a complete and balanced chandelier rig — don’t miss it! 📌 If you found this tutorial helpful, Like, Comment, and Subscribe to stay updated with every new part of the Blender Light Ring series.
