Comment on Merging two objects (I'm a beginner)
Nmill11b@lemmy.world 9 months agoImage is my crude sketch on what I wanna do. Image is the magquad holder I want to integrate directly into the case.
I don’t wanna stick the holder on my naked phone, and if I put the holder on the case as it is, it will likely be too thick to charge.

OK that’s clear.
What I would do :
I would remove the corners of the mag holder.
For this, I would make a big cylinder to catch what I want, and use an “intersection” to get only the center.

Then I would place my new shape like you on the case. Without the corners, you would not get the troubles of removing the complex shapes for the camera and the buttons.

I love this. This would make it easier. I can use the exact same cone to “cut” the case. I’ll also be able to perfectly center the cone on the mag quad adapter (not sure if the stl has is 100% centered or not, but this way I can get it perfect.
I’ll play with this. Probably won’t have time for a few days, my days are busy. I tried using sphere deletion in blender yesterday, and it was a bit tough since it was my first time using any 3d design software.
I think this is probably the best suggestion for how to accomplish this, and I’ll be able to focus on doing it soon.
