Hello,

I have 2 problems with a part.
1. I received an element from a car body, i think its made with surfaces, anyway i made thicksurfaces to made a solid body. My problem is how do i unite those surfaces to became a single one?
And the second problem is: how do i create a "paralellipipedic" body filling up the empty space between lateral surfaces?

I need to do this operations in order to make a boolean operation on another part with this one, cause this part will be the one who will extract.


With kind regards,
Cosirius.

it would have been nice to JOIN all surfaces before you made ThickSurfaces...

Anyway, your ThickSurfaces soide feature are in the same Body (green gear)... it is consider as one solid already. you do not need boolean operation.

ThickSurface is not just an Offset... You do have a complete solid with a thickness...

Its more complicated the that but thxs for answer.
I cant join all surfaces from the begining cause i receive the element from my client, sucks.
