    1. 1. Show me how to create a split

    Use Split to divide faces on a surface or solid, or divide a solid into two components. To start, create a work plane, surface, or sketch geometry to use as the splitting tool. Sketch geometry is projected onto the target faces.

    The Split command has two options:

    Split Face

    Divides one or more faces to add draft, delete an area to create a surface, and to create new features.

    Split Body

    Divides the solid, and creates a component with one portion of the solid.

    You can create two components from one solid, or remove a portion of a solid by deleting the new component.

    You can split a solid, surface, or quilt.
