Autocad wont convert to solid
Hi people im wondering if anyone could kindly help me. im creating a model and the moulding company requires me to send them a file in one of these formats. SolidWorks native (.sldprt), Parasolid (.x_t or .x_b), STEP (.stp), IGES Surface (.igs), or ACIS (.sat).
When ever i try export to sat it wont let me but i think its to do with it not being a solid. i created this in sketchup and saved as dwg file. ive tried all conversion sommands but nothing is working for me im really new to cad and struggle with all the tabs,,..
thanks in advance

Try exporting the attached geometry.
I notice that this "sketchup" program that you speak of apparently creates cylindrical features as planar facets.
I also notice that if I put the two parts together that there is no clearance between mating faces.
We cannot manufacture perfect parts - so I expect that there might be some issue in assembling these parts.

AutoCAD is direct input e.g. if you want a line 100 units long, after picking the start point of the line you can specify "@100<45" (100 units, at an angle of 45 degrees) as the end point. You can also select entities and change properties in the Properties palette e.g. line objects have a start and end point you can change.
Keep an eye on the command line, that's how AutoCAD talks back to you - requesting point locations, length, and other input.
If you are going to fly by the seat of your pants, expect friction burns.
"I don't know" is the beginning of knowledge, not the end.
