+
+Dependencies
+------------
+
+This node requires `FreeCAD library <https://nortikin.github.io/sverchok/docs/data_structure/solids.html>`_ to work.
+
+
+Functionality
+-------------
+
+This node generates the intersection Curves and Points between different Shapes including Solids, Solid Faces, Solid Edges, NURBS Surfaces and NURBS Curves.
+
+The node can operate on pair of objects ("Shape A" intersects "Shape B") or on pair of lists of objects.
+
+Inputs
+------
+
+This node has the following inputs:
+
+* **Shape A**. The first object to perform operation on. This input is
+  mandatory and can accept a list of Shapes*.
+* **Shape B**. The second object to perform operation on. This input is
+  mandatory and can accept a list of Shapes*.
+
+  Curves (NURBS Curves and Solid Edges) cannot be mixed with other Shape types.  
+  For example [<NURBS_Curve>, <Solid_Edge>, <Solid>] is not a valid input list.
+
+  Valid inputs are [<NURBS_Curve1>, <NURBS_Curve2>, <Solid_Edge>] or [<NURBS_Curve>, <Solid_Edge>]  
+  or [<NURBS_Surface1>, <Solid>, <NURBS_Surface2>] etc.
+
+Options
+-------
+
+This node has the following parameters:
+
+* **NURBS Output**. This parameter is available in the N panel only. If
+  checked, the node will generate curves in NURBS representation. Otherwise, it
+  will generate standard FreeCAD curves (Solid Edge curves). Unchecked by default.
+
+Outputs
+-------
+
+This node has the following outputs:
+
+* **Vertices**. The resulting intersection (puncture) Points or endpoints of the intersection Curves.  
+* **Curves**. The resulting intersection Curves.
+
+Product variations of the Section operation:
+
+* Solid × Curve → Point (common case) or Curve (if the curve or part of the curve overlays with the solid)
+
+* Solid × Surface → Curve (common case) or Point (when both are only touching)
+
+* Curve × Surface → Point (common case) or Curve (if the curve or part of the curve overlays with the surface)
+
+* Solid × Solid → Curve (common case) or Point (when both are only touching)
+
+* Surface × Surface → Curve (common case) or Point (when both are only touching)
+
+* Curve × Curve → Point (common case) or Curve (if curves overlay at a certain segment)
+
+
+If no intersections are found the node will output empty lists.
+
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+**Curve** × **Curve** → **Points**:
