You need to merge your verts, Drop the tolerance down very low highlight all your verts and merge them.


If you believe in telekinesis, raise my right hand.

x ray

ya merge your verts in xray mode so you can see them all if theres any hiding.then try to convert again.i would up the base mesh faces to or that might give you problems later.

you should have xray on your shelf if you dont want to run into problems like these again.


A pint of example is worth a gallon of advice!!
