ahguter Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Hello guys, I am having trouble removing the top surface of this canoe that i am making. I have tried exploding the surface and it removes the top surface nicely but make two individual surfaces that cannot be combined using the join function. Any help would be appreciated.
