Hi, I’m new to Shapr3D and trying to figure out if there is a way to created a simple cone with lots of small holes cut into in, like a filter? I can create the cone, its just how to cut the holes into the curved surface. Is that possible?  
Thanks  
David

Loft your cone. Shell from the bottom if required. Position circles at hole sizes around. Use Project tool to put circles onto the cone. Push the projected circles through.
