Not a closed mesh

Im having trouble making this a closed mesh. Ive tried to repair it and fill holes but i cant figure out why it wont close. would somebody mind taking a look and let me know if im missing something?
Thank you!!!

Hello - the mesh has multiple non-manifold edges - the surface object has edge tolerances that are about the file tolerance - that makes it hard to mesh cleanly, not to mention some bad surfaces. Have you used JoinEdge (as distinct from Join) on this model?

The mesh is probably fixable, with enough patience, but I would concentrate on building a clean surface model. Is this really what you intend?


or are you stuck there and feel that is the best you can do at the moment?

Hello- in that case, I would probably just bite the bullet, back up, and do the level 1 and 2 trainingt material plus any other goodies that strike your fancy here:

If you can give a bit more indication of the design intent here, you can get some more help but I’d make sure to just do the hard part up front.
