Save the transformation of Boolean Modifier Difference I currently have carved out a chunk in my mesh as shown in the picture using the boolean modifier.

The 'cutout' is the mesh I am using to carve out what I want from the 'bishop model' mesh.



How can I actually save the carved out mesh version so I can delete the 'cutout' mesh?

Is this possible?

Thanks.
Modifiers are what is called non-destructive modifications, they are meant for users to be able to do further editing before committing to a final irreversible transformation.

The idea is that you don't apply a modifier until you need to (if at all). It is not uncommon to never apply the modifiers. That way you can experiment or refine the settings, or further combine it with other modifiers, or change the order in which the modifiers act, without effecting the original object.

If you need to make the modification permanent then Apply the modifier. The transformations will now be part of the object and the modifier will disappear.
