Mesh merging nodes … maybe?

      Hi Folks,

      I apologize if this has already been asked, but to be honest, I'm not sure that I even know what to ask to get these errors resolved.

      I cannot for love nor money get the mesh errors to go away. It looks like to me that I need to somehow merge nodes, but I can't get that to work? Or I need to merge edges? Has anyone seen something like this before, and can point me on a path to fixing it?

      Please let me know if I can provide further information.


      Thanks and kind regards,

      Tess

      Hi Tess The meshing errors are caused by imprecise geometry. I recommend you open the geometry in SpaceClaim. Copy/paste the edges on one side to create curves. Delete the faces to get rid of the slots, then extrude the curves to make new slots. You might want to do a repair operation on the curves before you use them to make a new slot.
      If you need help applying this advice, create a Workbench Archive file of the Geometry and I will try it.
      Kind regards Peter
