Slice a Body

[koluna]

Hello!

How can I slice my Body to two parts?
It is for 3D printing. I will print my Parts separatelly and glue them.

Hi
in partWb only , do a large cube (Extrude) , do a Commun , clone it and move it (red)
do a cut (limiter / commun)
do 2 STL
Remarque : maybe you have to do more than one cut because you have several parts whithout supported roof

do a large cube (Extrude) ,

I made it in Part Design WB (additive Box). Is it ok?

do a Commun

I made it in Part WB and got an error "<Exception> Input shape is null". Why is it so?
I have already got this error when I had tried on other ways...

I did it in Part WB (Sketch + Extrude). It does not work too!

input shape is null

Your body has lost Tip somehow. Open PartDesign WB, right-click the last feature in tree ("Limiters") and click "Set tip" in context menu. Your body should slice apart nicely after that (at least on my machine, it does).

You are right. It is a horrible abrakadabra
I moved and deleted some features... maybe it is a reason a bad bahaviour...

Thanks a lot! It works!

If you can repeat it, please report.

Ok.
I deleted some feateres and actively used a Space key in tree navigate.

And further. Should I set the "Display Mode Body" property to "Tip" before using Part WB?
