Sheet metal to solid

I know there are some tools to convert a solid to sheet metal.

Is there one for converting a sheet metal to solid?

I have a part that actually modeled as a sheet metal 9Sheet metal features), But in reality, this cant be one, it has to be solid metal.

 

Is there a way to convert?

Was it created in IV if so you can convert using the sheet metal funtion as it works both ways.

Sheet metal tab, drop down under sheet metal defaults, Convert to Standard Part.

 

It is also under the model tab.

Your vendor/drawings/etc... don't care if it was modeled as a sheet metal or standard part.. The real question is does the part as modeled match/meet what you need?
