      I'm trying to use Auto Skin selecting the original solid body to keep the facets that match the faces of the origianl solid body following the instructions here: Creating the CAD Geometry

      However, when I run the tool, it doesn't match the faces and I'm left with a geometry like this: 

      Any suggestions on how to make this behave more like the example?

      Hi Jmoore, 

      If you are using Autoskin the result should be patch body (CAD) and not a faceted body. 
      Do you see any error message after the Auto-skin operation? The image seems like a result of ShrinkWrap Tool.
