The attached is a face frame for a wood stove. The four pieces are each a separate group and are rotated at 15°. I am trying to join them which I guess is a compound miter. I am using the trial version of 2017 Make but haven’t used solid tools before so I don’t know if that is the right tool for this. I tried intersecting but may not be doing it right. Any help would be appreciated.

@Shep posted faster than me. But I would also use follow-me, with a few follow-up steps because I suspect you want to model the top, bottom, and two sides as separate parts, not as a single group.
After the follow me, explode that group (or don’t create it in the first place), erase the bottom and one side. A right-to-left drag selection box around a bottom corner will select what you need to erase. Then select the top using a right-to-left selection box drag at its middle, and make that component. Repeat for a side. Open for edit and trace an edge at each end to create a face there so that the components become solids. Copy and flip the top to the bottom, and the one side to the other side.
Thanks to both of you. Follow-me definitely the way to go.
