And thank you also Rich. I really appreciate it.

I assumed it was necessary to group the 1x6 in order to copy it and make an internal array (which I discovered it is not). I also made a component out of the finished fence section which was perhaps unnecessary. Exploding the group and then the components allowed me to push/pull and remove 3' sections of board, one at a time. I assumed it would be easier to attach the fence to posts without it sticking by making it from an array of components. I will review the videos!

Can someone advise me how to make adjustments to the height of a fence at any point along it's length? I have a 9' section of 1x6 running horizontally to 6' high at the back of the yard in my model. I would like to cut out a 3' section in the middle down to 3'. The result would be a 9' fence that is 6' high for 3', 3' high for 3', and 6' for the remaining 3'. I have tried creating a square on the face of the fence that I pushed through to the 'back' of the fence and deleting it in the same way you would when creating a hole through something made of two surfaces, to no avail. Similarly I am trying to cut off deck boards on an angle at the edge of a deck in my model with no luck. Help!
