screenshot below which I learned can be a time-saver, so is important to think
about when preparing your CAD reference.  Try to make a point to define a
vertex at each corner of the “donut hole,” even if you don’t need to to make
the shape.  This will create a separate partition/exterior wall where the two “face-to-face”
partitions exist, so that you can easily modify (or delete) them later in detailed
as may be necessary.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
