Max,

I'm afraid it will be very hard to find one, because it is too specific... Tell us why you are finding cutting curved walls with voids difficult to achieve, and we can try to help you.

Then maybe this thread will become your tutorial...

I can not get the void in the correct location to cut the wall. I know you told me before to set a reference plane and work on it, but I don't know how to accomplish that. I just need step by step instructions on how to cut a curved wall.

I will try to get a picture of what I am trying to do to post.

Thanks

Max, Draw your reference plane in plan. Just draw it out right in front of your wall. While you are still in plan click create>void>extrusion. Set your work plane>from the menu on the design bar. Choose "pick a plane" Select the one you drew in plan. Reorient yourself to an elevation and complete your void. Use cut geometry to make the void on your wall. You may have to adjust the void to make it work.

There is a solution written for this at Autodesk.com (I wrote it. :-) )
