Hey there,
I'm trying to create a simple join connecting the lower spindles of this chair to the rear and front uprights using the boolean tool and derived parts but am having some trouble. I have managed to use the boolean tool on the rear uprights to create a hole for the spindle (shown by the part exploded view below) however when I try to do the same in the front upright part studio it tells me I can't because of cyclical references.
I managed to join the seat spindle manually through exact measurements however haven't been able to accurately join the lower spindles this way. Is there a way in which I can use a boolean remove again the same way for the front uprights?
(The bottom image shows where the lower spindles need to be inserted into the front uprights)
