  Hello,
  
  I have a geometry STL file and I converted it to solid geometry using SpaceClaim. I'm trying to combine two solid bodies. Errors come out, some are fixed, but there are no following problems.
  
  it is not possible to delete these edges either through delete or through "f", writes it is not possible to delete edges
  Also, an error is issued with other bodies.
  Cannot merge bodies. (Operation failed because the faces and edges would combine in a way that does not form a valid solid or surface.)

  Help me please.

  Hello,
  
  Could you try to resolve the additional edges by using the Repair - Fix - Extra Edges feature? Let's see if this resolves the issue.
  Also, could you please make the second body visible and provide a screenshot?

    Unfortunately, it doesn't help. There are no geometry errors before converting to solid.
    I've already tried all the auto-corrections.
    The second figure has the same shape, only with a larger radius.
