Hi Michael,
Thanks again for your help. This is the last time I bother you with my super basic beginner's questions for, hum... at least a week. Promised.
1. Naked Edges
Your method worked beautifully, but I'm struggling with making this a solid. I've found the very useful SelectNakedEdgesV2 script on the forum and it shows that new naked edges appeared in the side hole. It also shows a naked edge either on the new planar surface we've just created, or on the curved surface of the main body - I'm not sure which.
I've tried reconstructing some of the surfaces, but it's a vicious circle as it seems to be creating more holes... I've also tried to flat snap the uncooperative edges, but without success.
2. Fragmented Edges
The more I try to fix things, the more fragmented edges I get. Is there a way to easily recombine them again (Boolean Union doesn't seem to do it and Join creates a new curve but doesn't defragment the edges)?
3. Fillet
I thought that I would be able to fillet the hole situated on the side of the case, but I don't seem to be able to do so. Is it because the hole "crosses" several surfaces? If so, is there a way to do it?
Also what would be the best tactic to fillet the intersection between the case and the adaptor (highlighted in green in the picture below)?
Sorry for asking so many questions. I'm getting there, thanks to you and this great forum and the flood of queries will hopefully soon be reduced to a mere trickle...
Cheers
Phil
