Is this guy doomed to not be a solid because I used the freehand tool too free-handedly?

I don’t know why I am struggling to fix this, but I am.

solid inspector 1 sees something solid inspector 2 doesn’t

these two parts end up on a line.

When I put it through the web version it tells me over a thousand tiny edges.

so I was surprised how big it was, I suppose you enlarged it to find where it was causing a problem.

click for image. or maybe a rickroll ? who knows.

here is a quick fix. it’s a solid now.

here is what happened. but I don't want to overload your thread with images ;)


here is an example of hat happened. the volume is in contact with itself, but only on a single line.

this is (one of) THE thing solid inspector2 doesn’t see while solid inspector 1 does. I assume the web/ipad version is based on the more recent version.


si2 not solid but no errors.


si1 sees the line as a problem.


if I add just a smidge of thickness and cleanup a bit…

it’s now a printable solid.
