Summary

In this chapter, you learned to duplicate an existing cylinder to make a template for a hole. You resized and repositioned the hole, keeping the minimum wall thickness in mind. You learned new techniques for selecting multiple items at once. You deleted unnecessary vertices and practiced mesh modeling to make new faces for your half cylinder hole. You learned how to use the Boolean Difference Modifier to subtract one object from another. Finally, you learned how the ordering of your modifiers can impact on your final object. Altogether, you finished the base of your bracelet plate.

In Chapter 7, Customizing with Text, you will learn how to add text to customize and finalize your bracelet.
