Yeah Maya is Catmull Clarke SDs. Only the best.

Booleans aside, it is possible to do this without them, with a similar amount of Geo and a few extrusions in and down.

I know this has all come up before in other posts, but booleans are kind of avoided like the plague - generally because of the uncertain geo and mess that they can leave behind. I'm still kind of baffled as to why they are even in the software.

anyway, its looking good now


Edit: Looking at the geo dave has there, a boolean wasnt even needed as its so clean and all in place, as I said a quick extrude would do the trick.
