Sewing command will not work...
(OP)
Hello, I used bound planes to cap the ends of a piping model and now I am trying to sew them to the model. However it isn't working. From what I can tell bound planes inserted a sheet and I only have the option to sew a sheet to a sheet, not a sheet to a solid body. Can somebody instruct me on how to use this tool?
Thank you.
Thank you.

Take a look at the attached model - Extrude(5) caps the boss area with wall thickness. If you want the boss (Tube(1)) filled completely but maintain the Tube(0) ID, then suppress Extrude(5) and unsuppress Extrude(3). If you want the entire T-shape to be a solid rod, suppress Extrude(5) and unsuppress both Extrude(3) and Extrude(4). If you want all ends capped with wall thickness, suppress Extrude(3) and Extrude(4) and unsuppress Extrude(5), Extrude(6) and Extrude(7).
There are probably other workflows that could be done using Delete Face and if hollowing is desired, applying a Shell.
