ReMark Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Are the centerlines of both cylinders at the same elevation? Something looks a bit off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nestly Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 (edited) I would use the INTERFERE command, then SUBTRACT the "interference" object, then Separate the two halfs. Heres a demo --> ...or for 3 dollars, you can get the TRIMSPLIT app/plugin from Autodesk Exchange to automate the process. http://apps.exchange.autodesk.com/ACD/en/Home Edited July 10, 2013 by nestly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
