trouble removing prung parts

hi,

I am tryin to remove the parts entirely all through the section of the feature named "cony" in feature "shape" but only able to remove two of the prungs from the top. The bottom part too removes just to a point and not even as designed to. Please, can anyone advice on how to properly sort that out? I'll be really grateful. Pleases, find the link below

Kind regards

    Edit the Extrude "Shape" feature and set it to symmetric.

    Hi @MichaelPascoe

    Thank you for the reply. The symmetric makes the feature highlighted for removal ("shape") red and not cutting through. Not know why that is, even when trying other tools within the Remove tool in extrude

    Hey Andrew. It seems the problem is within the sketch used for the Extrude/Remove feature. The extrude fails when a certain portion of the sketch is selected. Close examination reveals this:

    In your sketch use the Use tool to capture that upper edge of part 1 and then make that vertex of cony intersect with that upper edge. - Scotty
