Blender Market – Loop Copier v2.4.0: Loop Copier is an essential tool to copy mesh around the chosen edges of the loop.
It's different from using Array Modifier and Curve Modifier in Blender. It will alter the original mesh components (the curve modifier bends it).
The tool cannot modify components and is perfect for creating solid-surface structures like tanks, chains, bullet magazines, etc.
You can select which copiers you want to use you want, and it also has Offset Scale and Rotation options.
It operates on closed loop or open ends edges-line.
You can also apply this tool on the edge of your mesh.
This tool can be used for curved surfaces as well. It can place mesh on the edges you have selected on the incline. (using faces regularly)
