2. Multiply slab
3. Add Shell for SEO
4. Hide Shell and there you go

this is what i understand and dont understand
1. Slab with hole OK
2. Multiply slab OK
3. Add Shell for SEO CAN YOU GO INTO A LITTLE MORE DETAIL PLEAE !
4. Hide Shell and there you go OK put this on a new layer and turn the layer off.
Thanks.

for the shell part.
i was able to first select a surface on the side from one of my boxes, to allign starting view.
then i created the free form shape.
extruded the shape using the shell option 360 degrees.
placed it on the a new level.
used SOE solid object editing to subtract the new form from the boxes.
turned it off and BINGO there she is !
my only problem is.
i would really like to be able to go to a section view, draw my shape exactly for the extrusion and then make my shell.
But i cant work out how i can make a good profile in section and then use that for my shell extrude. at the moment it is just all loose in 3d view mode.
thanks guys.

missing part for you:
1. in section draw contour of shell with spline tool (or any other line tool)
2. copy that line and paste it on the floor plan
3. with shell tool active space+clik that line and finish shell as you want...
