“””””” looks like a lot of work.””””””

Not really. The video is about 15 minutes and add a couple to get it uploaded.

If i was just doing the “work”, i would launch the move tool and pound it out with construction lines.

Maybe 1 minute 30 seconds of work.

So interesting how you fixed this model. Amazes me how such small errors in the geometry can cause these problems.
Thanks so much for making this video BurrMan. Many times I will be creating some really complicated organic shape. And I know I am probably dealing with these same kinds of errors.
Many times I struggle to get certain models to turn into a solid. So I usually just try it some different way. Till I get it. But actually seeing these micro errors is so valuable. Going to try your technique. Thanks Man.

Hey speck,

“”””””” Many times I will be creating some really complicated organic shape. And I know I am probably dealing with these same kinds of errors”””””””

Be careful about leading yourself into futility. I would do this in cases where i can easily determine “this should work”…. Moreso than “this doesnt work”….

For instance. A simple square with some fillets. (Kind of like this particular model)

If you have a very complex shape, organic etc. it may be difficult to use this to find errors.

So the first step was finding the bad surfaces. Then determine how/why those are bad and reverse that… that is the better takeaway than “check for tangencies” so to speak.

Just a heads up

Glad it helped though. You’re welcome.
