I have a 3-sided short, wide inverted U-shape solid part which is 3mm thick. I created this part by shelling three faces. I'd like to create a 2mm wide by 1mm deep continuous ridge along all three exterior surface, but when I created a 2mm x 1mm rectangle on one of the end edges and performed a cut command I can only select one target in the extrude dialog box. So I'm ending up w/ a 2mm wide recess on only one face. I'd like to continue this feature along the adjacent arc surface and opposite mirror surface (inverted U-shape). I also tried to KNIT the three exterior surfaces where I wanted to cut a 2mm recess, and still wasn't able to cut a continous 2mm wide recess along the flat-arc-flat exterior surfaces. I'm a novice in this program and trying to teach myself, so please be descriptive w/ your advice. However, I have a few years experience w/ AutoCAD and Vellum. Cheers!
