Need some little help here

Hello,

I’m trying to close these surfaces to a polysurface but it doesn’t work and I don’t know why. Can you have a look over it? What is the problme there? help.3dm (224.7 KB)

Thanks!

Hi Alex,

there are some bad objects in this polysurface. To make Rhino detect them automatically you might enable _CheckNewObjects. This will pop up a dialog every time a bad object is created.

To repair it, you can extract the bad surfaces and inspect their trim curves (_Untrim _KeepTrimObjects=_Yes then _Explode the trim curves). There are some tiny segments which made the trims bad…too time consuming to repair them all so i`ve just extracted the important ellipses and made some new lofted surfaces. I guess the source of the problems is a loft surface of the inner shell which should be a single surface but has fallen apart into 4 surfaces. This can be avoided if your loft curve (the trim of the bulged cap) is continous, without having kinks in them.
