I need tips on creating useable Solidworks Surfaces or Solids from point clouds generated by a Faro Tracker.  Any tips?

Thanks guys for the quick reply, but most of what I saw in the threads was over my head.  I've done a lot of work with solids, but I've never worked with surfaces to amount to anything.  Do you know where I could find step by step instructions for this?
