Afternoon All

Having fun modelling a pump volute! I have an example I have studied to understand how it is created and I'm following this with mostly success.

However, I have never used the merge command before and this is where I run into problems.

I have filled and merged the small area arrowed but when I fill and merge the large area the arrow is sat on the small section disappears!

Any ideas?

    Bit more fiddling and I have solved the issue, I changed the large fill for a projection and this has cured the problem.

    Next issue is trying to solidify the whole shebang. When I select the model the solidify feature is greyed out so, is there a way to check what elements are not merged?

    I've been through my tree and it all looks merged!

    Hi,

    use Search Tool to find one-sided edges.

      Thanks Martin

      Never used that tool before!

      It is showing me edges that I thought were part of a previous merge, do I just merge them to an adjacent edge?
