Cant finish form

[Anonymous]

Hi, I'm new to fusion and have had no previous CAD experience and have been relying solely on youtube videos/internet articles to do this project. I have completed my form, however it won't let me finish it. I have tried more or less everything i have found on the internet - and i've tried the repair body button, but none have worked. I'm hoping that someone will be able to help me here as this has taken nearly as long as designing the form.

The topology for the TSpline model is preventing conversion. If you use the repair function it will show you the model is riddled wit star points. Star points are points where you have three edges coming together or more than 4. This creates either triangles or n-gons. While you need star points to build complex geometry you should always strive to have as few as possible.

I don't think it will be easy to fix this model since it has a lot of star points, triangle faces and N-gon faces. The work flow for TSpline modeling is the same as polygon modelers. I would suggest watching some videos on topology from Modo/Maya/3DS max to help you better understand topology. Ideally your mesh would be all quad faces, no triangles or n-gons.

Hope this helps.
