      Hello Dr.Sassi!

      Please take a look at the scene enclosed. I'd like to know how can I make a hole in the CABIN that connects the TUNNEL
      Thanks!

        Hi Javier,

        Thanks for the file

        In the Thicken Generator, you have three options to create geometry. You need to explore what is important to generate for each operation.
        If there is too much or missing geometry, it will make or break the result.
        Here is a setup, as far as I understood your request. Both Thicken Generators are set up differently.

          Hi! Thanks for your reply! Sorry, I have to explain better! What I'm looking at is a full hole in the CABIN object, as if the TUNNEL object where a solid extrude

            They are two objects, but must be connected exactly. Thanks again!

              I mean, the CABIN has a door to the TUNNEL

                Hi Capprim,

                That will not work with one Boole operation, or the Tunnel is supposed to stick into the cabin? The Thicken is not able to produce anything useful for Boole.
                Here is my take on it. Will that work for you?

                Side panel is set to X-Ray to showcase the result.
