First, the main logo consists of just under 300K vertices, most of which are completely pointless. Is there some tool I can use which will automatically eliminate vectors which do not create an angled face?

Second, I followed the tutorial to resolve the non-manifold error, but my entire model (all 300,312 edges) are selected. Perhaps there is a tiny hole somewhere in my shape, but I can't find it. Is there a script or easy means to locate that?

Thanks!]]> isnoop 2009-09-20T23:05:02-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=6703&th=1404#msg_6703
The non-manifold bits left over are a gnarly bit of nearly hidden shapes that I could just as easily do without.]]> isnoop 2009-09-21T00:24:35-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=6705&th=1404#msg_6705


I've attatched the fixed file for you, but I still think it'll need some work. A lot of your conversion artifacts are quite small and will probably flag the shapeways systems for minimum feature size.

I recommend exploding your model into shells, deleting all the unnecessary junk, and then boolean everything back together.

Also, converted your model to mm.
