I have rebuilt the main body and joined the ridge part as you suggested. Its much better with your instructions thanks. Remaking the body ontop of the old one worked out pretty easy aswell, just snapping circles to circles and making sure I had the right bits selected before boolean diff subtracting and merging pieces.






The flint holder was going well. I made the profile curves as suggested, vertical lines and tangent arcs. I extruded the curves and then boolean diff subtracted out a cube from the middle, but couldn't get the fillets to work on the inside edges. I was suspicious of the little straight part at the bottom so removed that and tried the above steps again and the fillets worked fine. Sweetness.







Thanks for your help sorting these bits out, its a fun and refreshing change using Moi to my regular poly modelling toolsets.
