Hey all I appreciate any help you can offer (or a youtube video which may help). I have spent most the day trying to figure out how to go about this. I am trying to make a clone of my Minelab Etrac Battery (going to build my own lithium-ion pack). There is a guy selling them on ebay for $20 but where is the fun in that (I post this link so you can get an idea of what the finished product looks like) http://www.ebay.com/itm/Li-ion-battery-3-7v-18650-holder-for-Minelab-explorer-se-e-trac-and-other-/282412444595?hash=item41c117ebb3:g:WosAAOSwRoxXm5PY
I have the basics down but struggle on how to remove the material from above and below my selection on the body. It is not flat on the z axis it has a slight incline on both the top and bottom. Here a picture should help.
I want the material above and below my selection to go with it leaving only the ‘nose’ I am struggling for ways to do this. I know it is hard to explain. Maybe there is a way I can share my project file for someone to have a peek at.
Thanks for looking,
Neil
