A new method for approximating Skyrme solutions is developed. It consists of cutting sections out of the Skyrme crystal and smoothly interpolating between the boundary and spatial infinity. Several field configurations are constructed, and their energies calculated. The surface energy (per unit area) of an infinite flat plane of the crystal is also calculated, and the result used to derive a formula analogous to the semi-empirical mass formula of nuclear physics. This formula can be used to give some idea of what the Skyrme model predicts about volume and surface energies of the nucleus over a broad range of baryon numbers.
