That probably means you've got inner-polygons in your object. Remember: CSG routines heavily depend on clean geometry. If you try to create a hole in, for example, a simple cube, you will see it works perfectly.
You need to examine your object closely and remove any overlapping or inner-polygons. Also make sure vertices are welded whenever you can. |

Make sure the faces aren't just facing the wrong way. Check this by turning off culling. Then either flip them one by one, or if they aren't there, copy them from a copy window and paste them. _________________
