Hi sayd,

>>>I attached a pic where you can see what i mean.

I had not seen that detail on the pics, so sorry for my confusion.

You will need to create a separate part for that, as you have already boolean out that ear piece.

There are different ways to construct the grid, by either creating a solid shape then boolean out the holes, or by creating the cross sections and boolean them together, or you could even draw the full shape (with holes) and then extrude.

I decided to make the cross sections out of long cubes, I made 2 that crossed each other, then made straight array (which made the needed copies), then boolean together.

The array tool I used for this was the Dir (direction)

I first created 2 long cubes and rotated as needed:



Then selected Array/ Dir



Place the number of copies (top right)



Then select a base point and move the cursor in the direction you want the copies to be made.

The Grid Array is slight different.

First you will have the object to Array:-



Select the Grid Array



Enter the number of copies (how many you want in each direction)



Then enter the spacing:-



OR, use the pointer to set the distance



When done, the Array is made.
