That's very nice to know! But in this case the geometry is easier to
use AND instead of AND NOT. But if I can get nothing else to work I'll
certainly modify my polygon for NOT.
Thanks,

In that case I get a solid section of a torus.

Subject: Capping the ends of a mesh tube?
Greetings,
I made a torus with a nurb circle and rotated it around a two-point nurb
line (being used as the center point axis.) Hmm, let's see, I actually
have a picture here:
http://digitalstratum.com/images/tron/torus_construction.png
I then use a polygon to AND with the torus to get the section of the
torus I'm after. Everything is fine except the ends of the torus
sections are open, like tubes. Is there any way to close (cap) them?
Or even better, make them as if they were solid instead of hollow? I
don't totally understand U and V yet either, or which one runs in which
direction for various meshes.
More images of my exact process and the shapes I'm working with can be
seen here:

Sure wish there was a torus analytic.
Thanks,
Matthew
