How to cut solid body - Solidworks
Hi all,
I have a solid body .step file sent to me by a contractor. It is an alternate construction of a part we currently produce. I am trying to cut this model down to match our fabricated version to check its functionality within the entire product assembly. When I load the model the extrude cut button is grayed out. How do I get around this? Is it because it is a hollow surface body? How do I fill it? I have tried the fill feature and selected all surfaces, but this results in solidworks crashing. These are simple cuts, no drafts or anything like that? Any ideas?
