Method to fill a Mold?

[Greg_Scott]

Hi, this may seem a fairly silly question, but I'm very much a part time user, and have never needed such a function.

 

To try to explain, I've created a 'Mold' (via add solids) and would like to now fill it, to be left just with the shape within the Mold.....

 

Any tips on how to achieve this would be appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance!

Have you tried using Subtract Solids? Create a 3D solid bigger than the void inside the mold but smaller than the mold itself, then run the command making sure the shape you've just created is the one that's selected. Depends on the shape/size of the mold so maybe post a screenshot...

Done!

 

Thanks Tom worked a treat!
