Here I will tell you about 3dsmax 3dmodel cigarette ashtray tutorial.
I have used following techniques in this 3ds max tutorial.
Editable Poly Modeling and Boolean Modeling techniques.

[1]-First of all you will press (ctrl +N) now you will see the new window is open
Now click on the Geometry > Standard primitives > Plane Use the following Setting creates a plane like this
In the top view and set like this in the perspective view

[2]-Create a cylinder with the following settings

[7]-Now your object should like this
Same steps for second cylinder

[8]-Again create a cylinder with the following settings
Radius: 6, Height: -125.

[9]-Right click on the box and convert it to editable poly then select the polygon mode
Then make the selection like this

[10]-Open the material window
Click on the diffuse map button select the splat map
And use the following setting
Then assign to the selection

[11]-Again make a selection like this
Click on the diffuse map button select the tiles map
And use the following setting
Then assign to the selection

[12]-Again click on the diffuse map button select the splat map
And use the following setting
Then assign to the ashtray

[13]-Next, click on the diffuse map button select the Flat Mirror map
And use the following setting
Then assign to the plane

[14]-After assign the material press (F9) and you will see the final is ready
Save the file in your folder
