Hi thanks for the answer, how do I convert the surface body to a solid body? I've tried stitching the parts together but they didn't work out... Sorry I can't share the files as they are work stuff and confidential

the three main ways to go from surface -> solid are:

  • Stitch - requires the existence of enough surface bodies to define a water tight volume
  • Boundary Fill - again, requires an enclosed shape, but, unlike Stitch, the seams do not have to be highly accurately matched - they can extend beyond each other
  • Thicken - if your surface is not an enclosed shape, and you just want to add thickness to it, try Thicken in the Surface tab
