Why can't I create a tesseract-ish object with boolean operations in Rhino?

Create a box and scale-it with respect to its centroid. Then use boolean to remove the smaller box from the bigger box.

Hello - use NonManifoldMerge for this. The inner box will not have inward pointing normals though -you can use two mesh boxes, flip the inner one inwards and then Join the two. Meshes can be disjoint, breps generally not, in Rhino.

Not the time variable but the 4th geometrical dimension :wink:
