AutoCAD Architecture 2014 - 3D Printing

[JASONSTREET7385]

I've designed an object using 3D poly, but cannot it to a .stl file since it is not a solid.

Is there a way to convert a 3D poly to a solid, or is there an easier way to create odd shaped 3D items.

This is in an effort to print the item on the MakerBot Replicator Z18.

Thanks for your time.

Maybe post a picture of the object so we could comment on how to create it...

I've attached the file (I hope).

It is a corner stone on a bridge pier where the vertical face transitions to the nose panel.

I traced the two 'ends' of your 3d polyline and then used the LOFT command to create a solid.

Thank you MarySeufert!

I was unfamilair with the LOFT command.

In my attempt I had the "ends" ni place and couldn't connect them, now I can!

This I believe will be the solution to my conundrums!

The file was able to export to an .stl, so tomorrow I will test it and try and print it.

Thank you again for your time.
