Thanks for the post.

I attached an example object that you can extract off the parts out of to see how I built it. Here is what I did.

http://www.integrityware.com/eee/Easy_To_Make.zip

1.created a Power Sketch of half the ovoid.

2. Revolved ovoid pancake shape with Power Revolve.

3. Created a 3 blocks to intersect the ovoid in the form of an equilateral triangle.

4. I took the ovoid shape and cloned it and used the power shell command to shrink the shape by one unit inward

5. I then took the blocks and subtracted them from the ovoid with the power boolean command

6. I then took the cloned shrunk shape and used the power Boolean to subtract the center of the shape creating the opening.

Hope this helps:)

Sincerely,

Eric

Helps a lot, thank you very much...

I was trying to get the final model from the three curve shapes.
I need to have a total control of this holes, I keep trying...

I´ve already get something with turbosmooth from a equilateral triangle, take a look, but is always an approximate way.

Thanks again, and best regards from Madrid
