Hi, I'm trying to get this to slice in cura 5.6.0

Yellow block is set as a cutting mesh. Can Cura just not ignore stuff outside of the bulid area?

iso top bottom

I'm open to suggestions on how to cut it outside of cura as well. I tried meshmixer, but the import absolutely destroys the stl stl iso

Thanks!

I am not as familiar with cura, but prusa slicer / super slicer have a tool cut any model along a plane into 2 pieces. That seems to be what you want.
