Methinks SketchUp may have a ways to go yet.

I discovered an interesting "feature" this morning and will post to abpw.
It doesn't like to make a hole through material that already has a hole in
it.


Here you go, Bro ... make a cylinder "component" with diameter of the hole
you want, poke it though the curved surfaces where you want the hole(s),
then use the "intersect with model" function, then erase the parts you don't
want.

When you know how, it takes longer to draw the box and cylinder than to get
holes in the curved surfaces ... about a three minute job.
