Boolean / trimming error - adjacent features disappearing
Boolean / trimming error - adjacent features disappearing
(OP)
Here's one that has me scratching my head. I have a concave surface with a locating barrel removed from it. I need to somehow remove some periphery geometry, but regardless of the method used the resulting geometry is 'filling in' the barrel cavity erroneously. However, if I offset the tool surface +/-.0001" then the results are as one would expect.
Why is this happenning? All resulting geometry seems to check out 'ok' regardless of the method(s) used... Can anyone shed some light on this? Is this a known issue? Thanks in advance...

CAD should pay for itself, shouldn't it?
