Extrude to Cut. How to get it working

Post by designguy12 »

I'm a new user from Revit and having a hard time getting a second, third, and more to CUT or to work on a simple (4) wall shed.

I struggled to get the first one, but finally did get one to work.
but can not seem to get any other after that.

Can someone please point me in the right direction to figure out how to CUT with an extrusion?

Thank you much

Welcome!

There are a few ways to do it in FreeCAD, a cleaner method is described in this wiki :)
