Quick way to get volume of a cavity?

Is these a quick way to get the volume of a cavity? Mass properties give me the volume of the part, not the cavity.
I was able to make a solid and then use cuts and subtractions to model my cavity and then use mass properties on this inverse mold, but is there an easier way?

Hi Jon, you did it the right way - model the cavity using booleans.Senior Director, Technical Services, EMEAI5
