      Hi all,

      I just asked SketchUp to intersect about 600 little hexagons, with a wall thickness of 1/64". How long do I let it grind before I decide to close the program? Will it actually do it, if I give it long enough?

      Thanks'

      Chris

      OK, the answer is YES, but it took 4 hours!

        Were components inappropriate in your case?

          May have been, but it did eventually work.

          Why do you suggest that they were "inappropriate"? Just asking.

            because it's logical to refine one fragment (with intersected element) make it a component and only then array it X600, isn't it?

              You are probably correct, but it did finally work.

              I will keep that advice in mind for next time, however! Thanks
