Extrude not executing cleanly...

I was able to successfully remove the right semicircle using the extrude command but the left is a different story. Any ideas why I can't cleanly remove the left semi-circle using the extrude command?

This should clarify that and other aspects of extrude for you :miko_cardenas said:@viru- that did the trick! Not sure why it didn't require that with the right semi-circle...

It would allow everyone to see the whole project. You can copy the Part Studio to a new document, delete anything extraneous, and share that.miko_cardenas said:

However, particularly given your IP situation, I think it would be worth working through the webinars and tutorials, because any solid modeller is severe in punishing those who run before learning to walk.5 -

@miko_cardenas ,There may be chances of little deviation in thickness of left and right side of part. You may be created plane on which sketch of semicircle lied by taking reference of skeleton sketch. If you create sketch by taking reference of middle part then this problem will not happen as shown in below image.miko_cardenas said:@viru- that did the trick! Not sure why it didn't require that with the right semi-circle...
From image it look like left and right side parts are similar to each other therefore if you used mirror operation for creation of either side of parts then it will take very less time for part modelling and easy for editing in future.

If that's not it, the possibilities are endless.
You need to post a link to your document, and make it public.

@viru I did create the first middle part by importing it into the Parts Studio and then creating a mirror part on the other side. Then I referenced the opposite sides to create the semi circles. What I did find challenging (and I posed this in another question on the forum) was trying to align the middle parts to but up against the Skeleton Sketch. I scoured the tutorials and help section trying to find a way to align and or snap imported parts but I still do not have a solid grasp on it. I am gathering that it is best to do it all in one Part Studio as opposed to using the Derived function... In any case I appreciate you taking the time to help me problem solve.
