I used the Trim tool from Eneroth’s Solid Tools instead of the native Trim or Subtract for two reasons. I made components of the hook shape as well as of the “cutter” shape and I wanted the hook to remain as a component. The native Solid Tools convert components to groups when they modify them. Eneroth’s Solid Tools leave you with components which is the way the Solid Tools should work. I needed the shapes to be components because I used the “Dave Method” to avoid any potential issues with tiny faces. I used Trim because I wanted to keep the cutters in case I wanted to use them again.
