And thanks for your explanation of TNP, I'm using RealThunders branch, which I think fixed it to some degree.

Here is a model following your original approach. My guess is, that you forgot to set Fuse=True.

Thanks for your input, this is indeed very close to what I wanted. I didn't figure out the array tool at the time, so I copied and rotated the parts and tried to use boolean to fuse them.
