ok I have this 3D foot made up of polyface meshes meaning it's hollow (if you will)

 

how can I turn this foot into something I can abuse with union, subtract, etc? a 3d solid :?

 

I'm using acad MEP 2010

 

thanks

Where did you get this foot? Was it something you imported into Autocad, like a .3ds file?

 

It's been my experience that you cannot do anything with a Polyface Mesh in Autocad. It's basically just a static mesh. I haven't tried using one in 2010, but previous versions did not allow editing of the mesh, as far as I know.

 

One thing you could try would be the F2S.lsp which can be found here: http://www.accustudio.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=48&Itemid=58

I imported it through sketchup (as both DXF & DWG) I've tried bot F2S and M2S with no luck. I've downloaded a few programs that claim it will work but so far no joy. I could model the foot myself (now) but trying to save time
