Fill a hole

I’m not sure how to ask this question, but I created a subd part, I need a cutout in this part. I couldn’t figure out how to build the subd part with the cutout so I used trim to cut the cutout. Now how do I patch the hole?

Hi Kevin - easiest to use Wirecut to begin with, from this view:

After the fact though. you can extrude that same curve and trim it with the edges if the first trimmed object.

-Pascal

thanks!. that works great.

keep things as much as possible quads, you can do it this way:

that looks really good. It took me forever to draw my file i uploaded here. I had my most trouble with the round nose because I started out with a rectangle subd.

I will have to tackle the red eye later, it is a socket that has a flat bottom in order to glue in an eye after the part is made.
here is a part I drew with another program with the eye socket and it has grooves in the side I will have to try next.

I want to be able to do this in Rhino because most of what I draw are organic shapes.
so after using my other program for 12 years it is hard to draw in Rhino because I am thinking my other program.

Start with an ellipsoid, then push pull edges…
