hoss Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 What is the best way to crate a view likein this picture, The only ways that I can think of is 1-drawing a box in that quarter and subtract from other items. ( that turns all the individual items into one 2 -slicing twice in centre and deleting the quarter and union Like to know the best way to do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoss Posted October 18, 2012 Author Share Posted October 18, 2012 I tried Sectionplane on a basic solid and can't get the same result, i.e cutting 1/4 off to show the centre Thanks for you help anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Then try slicing with a surface. Easy enough to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 A simple example. I used the SLICE command and the Surface option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoss Posted October 18, 2012 Author Share Posted October 18, 2012 So, I assume that you put the sliced part on a different layer and freeze it Thanks dor your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Another cutaway view showing the internal coil on a decanter. Sliced opened the decanter but left the coil in tact. Normally I do my cutaways on a copy and blow away what I don't need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
