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.

Tried that (several times) and took screen shots at each stage. Pix on
abpw.

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.

Obviously I'm doing something horribly wrong, but it isn't a three minute
job yet...

OK, here's your "tutorial":

As I said on apbw, this is just one method to drill holes in curved
surfaces. There are other ways to do this in SketchUp.

I'm still a newbie!
