Tutorial on how to make a hole in a curved surface
« on: July 24, 2011, 17:31:46 »

This is a tutorial on how to make a hole in a curved surface (TFM brought me on the idea).  :)
I putted the globe in as the curved surface.

Step 1:

Make a rectangle, which front is the same size as the window or hole you want to have.


Step 2:

Make that rectangle a component (tool is marked) by selecting that whole rectangle. When the pop-up shows up, just click on make.



Step 3:

Place the rectangle into the globe. Right-click it and then click on 'cut' and then 'cut with model'



Step 4:

Delete or move the rectangle away from the globe and you should have like this.



Step 5:

Remove anything within that rectangled surface and voila! You just made a hole in a curved surface!  :)
