Do I do this off of a 3D sphere? The freeform, or is this on a sketch?

Hi!

 

In the image: It's a sphere + sketch on the sphere's center plane with a circle on it  + extrusion cut.

 

It's a lot easier if you show us what you need to create.

Have you a sketch or sheme or foto to demonstrate what you trying to build?

Not a sphere but same procedure.

If you know how to work with planes, this is also how you can do it.

 

I know its not exactly your part but I thought you might want a video. ( And its was the closest I could find, hope it helps)

 

Atleast more flesh on the bones 🙂
