Can someone take a look at this file? I’m trying to get a boolean split, but it keeps failing. There’s no shared surfaces, the intersection curves are closed (at a second look, there’s a 3rd curve that isn’t closed, but doesn’t seem to be intersecting either…). Is there anything I can do to make it work?

Thanks in advance!
Because surface and polysurface seams comes to same place that’s cause the error, you have to little bit rotate z axis of polysurface.
Hello - Your helix has naked edges at the seams - Explode and Join again to clean up, then it will work. But, modeling at .1 tolerance is just not a good idea in general.

Thank you Pascal, I can always count on you! I had drafted the threads in GH, now I know where to tweak it.
Yeah, I was messin’ around with the tolerance as a last ditch effort to figure out what was going wrong.
