Please add intersection feature. So user can choose two solids and create intersection of them.
Now it is possible to merge two objects, intersection I think should be very useful feature and not hard to implement.
Now it is not easy to do intersection with just merge shapes and hole shapes.
It's a good idea.
In the meantime, in case anyone needs it, I have created a short video to demonstrate the "easiest" way to achieve an intersection in Tinkercad.
It's not too bad, in that you basically just need to duplicate each part once and use the duplicates to make holes in place.
Great tip Glenn! Thnx!
I used similar approach but with copy/paste, and then struggling with positions and selection of invisible objects. This way is really not too bad, but still thinking feature is probably easy to implement and easy to put it in the GUI (at same place where is merge)
Thanks! We also agree we should have Intersection. Now the mental model is really simple. You have either solids or holes. You group two solids, and they merge. You group a solid with a hole, it makes a hole :)
Still gathering ideas about how to make an intersection as simple as this. Bob (another power user) has a pretty good idea of how to solve this without getting into a lot of complexity.
Did the idea of this feature die? It would still be very handy.
