3D exploded objects

[sgarrettCZ3VV]

Is there a way to join or union a 3D shape that has been exploded in autocad 2020

_SURFSCULPT may help you to rebuild if everything is still there and haven't been moved...

After exploded then they are not 3d to be able to join.

@sgarrettCZ3VV Think of EXPLODED 3D objects as broken glass jars: you cannot put it back together to be the original. Sorry.

If the object that was exploded was a solid and it was only exploded once what should remain are regions for the flat surfaces and surfaces for the nonplanar surfaces. As @tramber mentioned, you can then use surfsculpt to create a solid from surfaces and regions if they define a watertight volume.  If the regions and surfaces do not completely define a closed volume you may be able to add planes, solids and additional surfaces to define a watertight volume that can be used successfully by surfsculpt.

Thank you all.   The surfsculpt command worked perfectly

So that i am the one author of the solution 😉
