Thanks James.

but we are looking at creating a sand core for a sand cast part.

We need to create a core and extract it from mold cavity.

I guess the assembly you need is what PTC calls "cast cavity" not "mold cavity". Not sure if you got the correct one.

There should be an option to create "cast cavity" under file -> new -> manufacturing.

I imagine creating a "sand core" should be pretty similar to creating "mold insert", but i don't know for sure. How to split the cavity should be shown in the vid.
