    Search the net for F2S.lsp.
    The popular M2S.lsp does not work on pface meshes but exploding the mesh should give you a collection of faces which, I believe, F2S will handle.

    EDIT.

    Since you are using A2007, have you tried the CONVTOSOLID and THICKEN commands?

    If you can't get the lisp to work but have access to Mechanical Desktop you can igesout and igesin then amstitch. Or open the iges in Inventor and Stitch.

    You can provide a link to it. That way if it is updated, they can get the latest version.
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.

    I'm glad it worked.
    Don't post it here - it's easily available from the web. When others ask the question, please pass on the answer.

    It'll probably work. To find it just google "f2s.lsp" .
