Problem trying to shell

Anonymous — Mon, 20 Jan 2020 18:45:59 GMT

I completed Taylor Steins "Surface Modeling with Fusion 360" from YouTube (6/13/16). When done (and not part of the tutorial) I went to shell the bottle and no matter what I do I get the error message:

"Error: The operation could not create a valid result.Try adjusting the values or changing the input geometry".

A section analysis confirms it is a solid body. Doe anyone know what the problem is?

You probably have specified a wall thickness that violates the form and creates a sharp corner. Please attach your model so others can help you confirm this and suggest solutions.

Thanks, but this was resolved some time ago and I executed an "Accept as
solution".

Just responding to "open" forum questions. I do not see any solution so I responded.

@Anonymous you double posted and this thread did not get resolved, so it isn't a surprise that @jhackney1972 tried to help!

Lesson: Don't double post 😉

I knew I had mistakenly double posted but thought I had closed both of them
out. My apologies for wasting anyone's time.
