I started yesterday to meddle with CAD in general, and FreeCAD 0.19 specifically, and want to make a model to 3D print adding some toy-like capabilities to the [1] model. Right now I am at a stage in which, after Googling and watching tutorials, successfully importing the mesh in [1] and turning it into a shape (after much computation that made me doubt whether it was actually working), I would like to turn the T-Rex model into a solid to be able to do boolean operations on it. Right now turning the T-Rex into a solid is not working with
From my rudimentary understanding, I assume it is because of the hole inside the mouth of the T-Rex. If that is the indeed the reason, I assume I would be able to fix it by adding some part inside the T-Rex head to be a sort of "wall", so that its body becomes a closed void that can be filled. But I would appreciate tips from more experienced usersCannot convert t-rex-solid because Shape is not a shell.
