Solid difference Brep

Hello again, I tried to cut the joint nodes, but it’s not working properly. Some bodies aren’t cut. I tried splitting the list and cutting with other Boolean tools, but it doesn’t work. Can anyone help me?

Thank you for try help-me, but I want the cut to be aligned with the panels, like the image. If you know of another approach I could use, that would be very helpful. I need to do this for a college project.

Is this correct? Your data trees and cutter tree is the problem based on my quick look.

I think his approach is something different . btw I looked up your file and it seems the tree data that you used shift path on , hasn’t have sub branches so in these cases only using simplify would do . As I can see it seems you wanted to approach some flatten operation .

Ok, I see the problem now that it was solved.

Out of interest I was trying to solve the node problem using a different method. I am not sure all your nodes are exactly aligned correctly. I think you should be able to draw a line from the exact center of the dome to all of your node points. Your nodes should intersect that line at the exact center point and I am not sure they do.

Oh, yes! Sorry for the delay. I’m still having trouble with the “alignment (beams vs. vertices)” issue, but I’ll open another thread. Thanks again!
