isOpaqueCube doesnt seem to override, im in 1.15.1 if that helps?

Then you did something wrong. The method exists. Use your IDE to override.

This is my code for the block

public class JuiceMixer extends Block  {
    public JuiceMixer( ) {
        super(Properties.create(Material.IRON).sound(SoundType.METAL).hardnessAndResistance(3.0F,3.0F).lightValue(2));
        setRegistryName("juicemixer");
    }

}

i tried adding 

@Override
public boolean isOpaqueCube(){
    return false;
}

and it said 

Method does not override method from its superclass, i also tried using Control + O in intellij then searching for it and i couldnt find it. Please let me know if im doing something wrong

Ah right, that method is final now. You need to override getRenderShape and return the proper shape for your block.

How would i get a proper shape for my block? Never done this before

Look at how vanilla blocks create their VoxelShapes.

Ok cool, how do i make it so the floor is transparent? I got the model right, but the floor is transparetn

Please clarify what you are talking about. Show your code.

public class JuiceMixer extends Block  {
    protected static final VoxelShape SHAPE = Block.makeCuboidShape(0.0D, 0.0D, 0.0D, 16.0D, 7.0D, 16.0D);
    public JuiceMixer( ) {
        super(Properties.create(Material.IRON).sound(SoundType.METAL).hardnessAndResistance(3.0F,3.0F).lightValue(2));
        setRegistryName("juicemixer");
    }

    public VoxelShape getShape(BlockState state, IBlockReader worldIn, BlockPos pos, ISelectionContext context) {
        return SHAPE;
    }

    @Override
    public VoxelShape getRenderShape(BlockState state, IBlockReader reader, BlockPos pos) {
        return SHAPE;
    }
}

Well, your shape says that your block covers the ground completely (0 through 16 in both x and z direction). If that really were the case, the ground below it wouldn't need to be rendered.

You need to provide an accurate shape for Minecraft to render your block properly.

So i cant have the hitbox like that? Thats how i want it

The hitbox (collision) is determined by Block#getCollisionShape. It is separate from the render shape (Block#getRenderShape) and you can return different values for the two.

Whats the easiest way to create aa voxel shape for my model? I have the model as an obj or json

Approximate it using cubes. Look at fences for example.

Whats are the paramaters for a voxelshape? Sorry im shit at reading docs @ stuff

Have you looked at vanilla? You already did this in the code you posted...

yea ik, but i just made up random parameters
