You may also slice the object like in this old example… i’m sure ( “nowadays” ) there is a geometry node setup for this

Slicing a mesh with planes

I need to slice up a mesh using planes just as is demonstrated in this video: [Blender, cuts with planes [updated] (not a tutorial)] These instructions do not work for me because, I suspect, the Blender version used to make this video is prior to 2.8, as is shown by Its upload date. My Blender version is 2.90.1. How is this done in Blender 2.9? I know of the Knife, and Bisect tools. These do not meet the need which is to use existing mesh planes to do the cutting.
