To get the help you need, please attach your model to your post. If you do not know how to attach your Fusion 360 model follow these easy steps. Open the model in Fusion 360, select the File menu, then Export and save as a F3D or F3Z file to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section of a forum post to attach it.

Your question is unclear, so I am going to ask:

1. Do you want to thicken it? If not, what shape do you envision?

2. What operation did you try and what's the error?

3. Can you share the model? Without the model it's really hard to help.

Your geometry does not have any thickness. What solid body in the real world does not have thickness?
