problems with "routing"

Hello Michael,

Got a free moment away from work and family this month. Back to my strat model project and the learning curve for NURBS modeling.

I'm trying to "rout" the region for the tremelo assembly. I built 3 solids and used them to try and "rout" the body.

Unfortunately, I have missing surface in the result. Pictures of the solids and the result below. Model attached.








I think it may be because I wasn't able to get the 3 solids to join successfully so I just used them to boolean diff the body.

I also tried to punch them through the top and bottom of the body, but it didn't seem to make a difference.

Any suggestion regarding the best way make this pocket? I guess my way didn't work too well.

Thanks as always.

Jeff
