Create a Dice (part 2)

Boolean Operations (continued)

If you repeat Boolean Operations on a same object, you may have some minor problems.

See this example:

The first face of the dice has been further subdivided (too much) and shows visual defects

Let's work just on a single face at a time. You may use boolean operation on each side of the cube. Suppress the  face of the cube, with the Delete Tool.

With the Extract Surface Tool, you will re-create  the deleted face. You may now use boolean operations on this side, and then weld together the result with the rest of the dice.

Do the boolean operation against the face which you just extracted:

Use the welding tool to reassemble the pieces.

The same concept could be repeated over the other 4 faces of the dice. Here's a rendering with wood material applied:

Our dice is finished
