Creating a solid from a group of surfaces or modifying a dead solid??
Creating a solid from a group of surfaces or modifying a dead solid??
(OP)
Is there a way to modify a dead solid? The dead solid is a result of a mirror operation and then deleting the original. I now need to modify the resulting geometry.
In trying to modify the existing geo I converted the body to a series of surfaces thinking I could generate a "smart" solid from them. Is this possible?

RE: Creating a solid from a group of surfaces or modifying a dead solid??
Converting the solid into surfaces should work, but it will be alot of work. But in the end, you'll have a bunch of dumb surfaces (no history), that are joined together to create a ClosedSurface solid. I see very little benefit to this approach.
