Convert surface body to solid body Fusion 360

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi, I made a model in fusion using the "create form" tool and I am struggling to create a solid model from it. So my question is, how can I create a solid body from a surface body, in specific the one attached. I have attempted several things from other forum questions to no avail. I will attach the model below. Thanks for the help!

Your model is already a solid:

that white cylinder icon indicates a solid body.  A surface body would be an orange icon like this:
