P.S., real chimneys go through the roof, they aren't sliced to sit on top. And they are sealed to the roof with tin patches and tar.
Thanks for the reply. Using the roof as the knife definitely makes sense. What parameters did you leave on/off, i.e. slice surface, cut away object, and delete knife (obviously unchecked)?

And yea, I know the design isn't realistic, but it's an enclosed building for an old video game so I'm keeping it very simple.
