  <title>Issue with COLLADA upload (missing geometry)</title>
  <link>http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&amp;goto=36957&amp;th=6780#msg_36957</link>
  <description><![CDATA[Hi,<br />
<br />
I am having an issue with a model upload. My model called 'MoirePattern Chassis' is showing a triangle prism missing from its geometry. I used COLLADA format exported from Google Sketchup v8.0.4811. If I import the COLLADA model into Sketchup, it looks like the original file before export.<br />
<br />
The first two images below are renders from Sketchup. The last image is a screenshot from the website, how Shapeways has rendered it after upload.<br />
<br />
The model is here online: <a href="http://www.shapeways.com/model/358725/moirepattern_chassis.html?gid=ug" target="_blank"> http://www.shapeways.com/model/358725/moirepattern_chassis.h tml?gid=ug</a><br />
<br />
Please let me know any thoughts!<br />
<br />
Best,<br />

  <description><![CDATA[It looks like you have overlapping geometry in there. seeing those two faces are overlapping, shapeways removes them. I'd extend one face a little into the other, shapeways will automatically fuse the 2 sets of geometry that way]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[I removed the shared edges and the model renders correctly! Wonderful, thanks for the thought, Youknowwho4eva<br />
<br />
Below is what the model looks like now, and how it renders on Shapeways.   woohoo!<br />
