        You can have one active sectioncut per contex. So you can group it, place a section cut inside the group, exit the group and add a secction cut in model space.
        You can add more sections cut, but they all needs to be in separate groups. And it'll only work for convex sectioncut paths.

          Hi, the easier way in simple models like yours is to draw two planes on your reference section lines then select them and right click-->intersect with model. Then you can erase the unwanted geometry. ๐Ÿ˜„
