Hi marzRX, yes if you form your object as a closed solid then it will automatically orient the normals towards the outside of the solid.

Usually it is easiest to cut a solid using boolean difference with another solid as the cutting object instead of Trim. Trim is more of a low level operation, booleans are kind of like a batch mode where they combine trimming and automatically discards pieces based on what volume they are contained inside of and then automatically joined as well.

Thank you, Michael. I was able to create it.
I wondered if I could represent a design from a certain Photoshop tutorial on YouTube in 3D, so I decided to give it a try.

MoI is a savior for me. The results that can be obtained through study are excellent, making the whole process very enjoyable. ;)
