Mirror issues

Anonymous — Fri, 30 Oct 2020 16:22:52 GMT

Hi everyone, all good?

So I developing an CFD on SimScale for a X8 flying model, I grab a reverse enginnering model from grabcad (https://grabcad.com/library/skywalker-x8-reverse-enginnering-process-overview-1/details?folder_id=1704560) and imported the following to Fusion360.

Which result to me on the following:

My problem is: I need to mirror the wing portion to have the full model and then exporte as .stl. Using the mirror tool I get following

Which is my goal, but as soon as pressed OK, the following happens:

It mirrors on the same place as the orginal.

Any advice on how to solve this issue?

Best regards

I don't see where you converted the mesh to solid bodies?

The mesh looks to be very poor quality to me.

I would use only as reference in creating high quality native geometry.
