part.
This part have a few channels inside and I need the volume of the channels,
in other words, i need to have in 3d the channels and all the other paths. I
need the empty shapes in my part to became a solid.

You didn't state what version of Inventor you are using.
You didn't post example file here.

2010 Combine with cut

earlier - Derived Component with Split or Sculpt.

Results of 2010:

1. Extrude a new body over the entire part.
2. Using the new Solid 2 as the Base, Combine - intersect using the
original Solid 1 as the Toolbody.

Result is as shown.

3. Use Delete Face (Lump) to remove any unwanted geometry.

solid over the 1 solid?
but that is exactly what I want.

Most of them anyhow. I think I would have moved Fillet1 below Hole15 instead of adding Sketch25 and Extrusion9.

A work of art, a thing of beauty.

Roll the "End of Part" marker all the way up to the top of the feature tree. Move it down item/feature by item/feature. Do "Edit Feature" on each on as you go to see what he did.

Just bookmark it in Internet Explorer or Firefox. A version with sound
will be available in the new courseware I'm releasing in January.

Here's a brief "First Look" at the new courseware:

http://teknigroup.com/training/Inventor/courseware%20preview%20sk-1.html

The courseware consists of text, all color images, videos, and one on
one mentoring by an instructor.

Is this video still available?  I tried accessing it, but it appears to no longer exist.

 

Thanks,

You should be able to figure it out from the ipt files.

Dennis died about a 15 months ago, not sure what portions of his work might still be avialable.

 

Attach your file here if you can't figure out your problem.
