Body with zero mass after mirror

Hello, I'm having trouble, and would appreciate some help. I'm a relatively novice Fusion user, trying to design a stern arch for my boat.  Please excuse any poor practices in the project file. But feel free to point out better ways, I'm trying to learn and improve.

 

Anyway, my basic problem is that the final body of my stern arch has zero mass when I look at properties. The final two actions in the pipeline are a pipe command, then a mirror.  Before I mirror the body, it does have mass. If I suppress the pipe command right before the final mirror, then my final body does have mass. Therefore, there seems to be something special about this one pipe command that screws up my body.

 

To summarize:

 

Previous body + final pipe command + mirror = no mass

Previous body + mirror = mass 

Previous body + final pipe command = mass

 

Any advice would be appreciated!

that certainly looks like a bug to me.  Not sure what the mirror would have done to it to make the volume be zero...  We'll take a look at it.  There is nothing you are doing wrong that I can tell.

 

[edit]  The Fusion bug for this is FUS-76677

Thank you. Of possible interest is that when I select the path for the suspect pipe command, it auto fills absurdly large values for diameter, which I change to the desired value. With previous pipe commands, it auto fills sensible values similar to those used on previous pipe commands. Maybe here nor there, but perhaps related.
