How to edit this solid?

[Anonymous]

I have this cube that needs to taper into the round solid at the left. I would like to subtract the 4 slivers in the corners using that plane I revolved to slice through thanks

Use SLICE command

Plane wasn't the right word to use, sorry. It is not flat, I didn't think slice work on this?

Let's see your .dwg, it looks simple to do (maybe)

Here is the dwg

Thats it! Now how did you do that, lol

[Patchy]

Slice command, click on the cube, then watch the prompt, it will ask for SURFACE, use surface to slice the cube.

Got it to work here on my end, thanks again

I have another solid that I can't seem to slice. I keep getting 'the slicing plane is not intersecting' error.

[Patchy]

Where do you want it to slice? into 2 equal parts?

[Anonymous]

Yes please using that dashed line as the plane

Perfect, whats the trick to getting that to work?

[Patchy]

Copy the dash line to a different Z , Loft them, Slice using surface.

Awesome, that works!

The reason I wanted to slice this pc is because autocad adds a weird spiky artifact to one side when I STLOUT. I wanted to slice the pc in half, delete the side with the spike, mirror over the good side, and union. When I do that with the above file dwg, I get an 'inconsistent graph vertices' error, any ideas how to get around that?

[Patchy]

Which side is bad when STLOUT?  if the part is mirrored, the peg hole will not match what you have now.

[Anonymous]

The left side is the bad side.

Just wondering if you have had a chance to look at this, I can't get these guys to union no matter what I try, thanks.
