4:39 Tyson, you show here separating the top plane to access the chamfers for the follow-me. I believe you should be able to activate hidden lines and run that process without moving geometry as the chamfers would be then accessible to the follow me tool. Confirm?
If I understand your suggestion.. there are some other reasons I showed copying that face upward that I didn't talk about.. One is that if we use the edges or face directly as is, the follow-me command will break the arcs into segments, and then the next follow me command will show all those segments.. you can smooth those again of course, but it's one consideration. I also find it sometimes easier to separate the path. I can't use a triple-click to easily select or de-select the inner/ outer path if it's still connected. That said, I could have just copied the top shape once, and deleted the surface, leaving both inner and outer paths. That would have been easier. Thanks!
Appreciate these tricks, and especially what the Selection Toys extension can do. 👍👍
Lots of useful info there ! Thanks !
I’ve ALWAYS loved you the best, Tyson.❤
Haha, don't tell the other guys!

A great 'Selection' of tips there Tyson, Nice one Sir.
Why are the edges from the bench still black ? ... and not grey ? I'm confused ...
I haven't considered hiding a surface. Nice.
For those rare situations, it's a nice little 'trick'. Thanks!
