      Can one trim a sandbox?

        Turn on Hidden Geometry and delete extra faces as needed.

          Rich,
          Thank you for replying.
          How were you able to select them so neatly?

            I can't answer for Rich but I would select the area I want to keep and then invert the selection (Edit menu) and press Delete to get rid of what I don't want.

              That's exactly what I did.
