I very much appreciate the thread… being in a bit of a rush at the moment, I'll download it and absorb it completely later. However, I did want to briefly acknowledge your reply about solids – Yes, I understand that boolean operations can be used quite effectively on many other geometries than solids – however, my point was that if 3DS is having such trouble handling faces properly, perhaps a solid modeling algotrythm would be a valuable option for geometires which simply won't work under the standard operation. I've spent the last hour trying different variations on a simple geometry that still won't work. I will send you the zipped file. Perhaps there's something very obvious I'm missing. however, it would be a shame to have to go through lot of work on a simple geometry because the boolean algorythm isn't doing it's thing. Again, I appreciate the thread which I will soon read, and whatever help you can offer. I will go for the asprin now… <g> Sincerely, Jerome Kalisz
