removing material by other part

Hi

I am doing an assembly which consists of a pipe and a
plate. I would like to remove the inner material on the
plate made by the pipe and also to remove some of the
pipe so that the plate will be flat to the bottom and can
be mounted.

Help is creatly appreciated

Thx

if you extrude the tube, you can choose to extrude to surface. Then a second operation, referencing the tube intersection.

This model assumes the plate would be cut using a conventional method, and not at the angle of the tube. That would be easy to do as well however. 2009-10-14_122024_prt0004.prt.zip
 
Thx a lot, I appreciate it - and I got it now.

It is really a good solution you did using the planes to
define the pipe.
 
I use surfaces to do this and top down design. I created a video that illustrates this and uploaded it to u-tube. Although my youtube example is a bit more complicated you get an idea how one would create any tubular frame structure.

this video is to sell the engine and buy three others for an offshore power boat.
