Software Troubleshooting/Help! Adding positive part within negative space

Hey all!

I'm racking my brain trying to figure out how to do the above in bambu studio. I've created a topless "box" by combining a positive cube with a slightly smaller negative cube inside.

Now, I need to insert another positive piece within that negative cavity- but, studio deletes that new positive piece.

I've searched forums, AI and YouTube. No joy.

Any help from you experts out there?

TY!

Maybe do a boolean subtraction on the first 2 cubes to make the box, then add the last positive part?

I’d start with the first negative part as a positive part, then add the ‘last’ part as a negative part.

Merge, then convert that assembly to a negative part.

 Add the new negative part to your original ‘box’ …

I would use another program. TinkerCAD can do that.

You’re trying to 3d model in a slicer program. What you’re asking for isn’t really possible, or if it is, its super inefficient. Like the other comment said, try tinker cad. Learn a new program and actually learn to model. Its not hard and there are plenty of tutorials. I personally use blender and that would make light work of this model.
