Shell Analysis

Good morning all,

I am working on an a-surface for a client, (Can't share it. sorry) and I am testing the "shellability" of the model and I am getting the imfamous:
"Highlighted surfaces are too curved to offset by specified value."

Here is my question:
Is there an analaysis tool or a way to pinpoint the trouble spot in the highlighted surface?

I tried an offset surface analysis, and it showed that it would offset with no problems. (Even though a surface offset could not be performed.)

Doing a shaded curvature analysis, I was able to find the trouble spot. (Doing a maximum plot)

Coupling this with cutting away sections of the model and then shelling helped to find the issue.

Thanks,

Nate
