Full Version: Fit Filleting Fails

Hi mala, the initial problem is your model is made up of individual surfaces, you need to get it joined together so edges are shared instead of everything being separated.

Hi Mala, it looks like the separate surfaces problem is caused because your dome shape was an open surface instead of a closed solid when you did the boolean on it.

You should make the dome into a closed solid before doing the boolean. You can do that by selecting it and running the "Construct > Planar" command which will close off the bottom with a planar surface.

Additionally the cutting objects have a little gap in the middle area, they are also not solids. I closed those up by creating some lofts and joining those in.

Hi Mala, in the attached model I've fixed those problems.

So you should be able to open up the attached version, select these 22 edges:



Note don't forget this little one here:



Then you can apply a fillet:



It is helpful to refer to the "object type indicator" here to know if your
selected object is a finished solid or an open surface:

Hi Michael, thanks for eliminating the design flaws! I learned from them, replicated them in the design, and also added it to my personal MOI wiki.
Best Mala...
