mirroring a cut extrusion

Hello - In the attached file I have a model coach roof that I am making.

 

I am making the roof as one quarter and then mirroring twice to make the full model.

 

There are two fittings on the roof body 24 and body 25 that are raised areas with a hole through the middle.

 

I made the hole through a cut extrusion

 

These are mirrored at the end of the construction as I only want them on one end of the coach - mirror 13

 

But only the bodies are mirrored - the cut (holes) are not.

 

Is this an expected outcome?  or am i doing something silly?

 

Many thanks in advance

Hi,

Yes, because only bodies are cut (Cut Body) but no sketch elements.

Your trying to mirror a cut to a different body. The two bodies will have to be combine joined first.

Then it would be Mirror faces or features, but bodies will not be a valid selection.

 

Might help...
