Creating a Union of the Flare and Cuboid

Union the flare and cuboid to create the horn.

Note: The union operation is used to define connectivity between parts.

Parts that touch, but are not unioned, are not considered to be physically connected and will result in an incorrect mesh.

  1. In the model tree, select the flare and the cuboid (PathSweep1).
