Sorry for the delayed response @jjmurphy
I spent several years creating the 1615 tools included in the free download. Its by no means a complete set for any one part of the industry, but I had to publish them at some point, or I never would have. I hope you understand. Sorry for the confusion.
From here you have a few options. I have worked with many companies to create tools custom to their workflows. I believed tools should reflect exactly how each company works and not be “good enough” and the same for everyone. I do offer custom tool building and training services packed with all my experience if you’re interested.
I also launched a few digital courses that will teach you the basic skills you need to build them yourself. The courses are set up in sequence to be done in order as prerequisites.
101 Bluebeam Basics Unlocked
201 Bluebeam Takeoffs Demystified
301 Advanced Estimating with Bluebeam
You can also start with a FREE course “001 Bluebeam Setup Made Simple.”
Here is the link to all of my digital courses. https://uchapter2.com/bluebeam-on-demand-courses/

Welcome to the Brainery @jjmurphy
Something to consider when “looking” for pre-built tools is how you will use them in your workflows. Our custom tools probably wouldn’t be useful for you as they are tied to the item database in our estimating software. Further, we have a Power Query “data wash” step that prepares the markup data for uploading into our estimating software.
So, my suggestion would be to start with the end in mind and develop custom tools that work in your workflow. Start with the first piece of your takeoff – say 18″ Compost Filter Sock, or something similar, and then build from there.
Hope this helps. 😎
