      Forums have a lot on creating faces but nothing quite like what I'm looking for. I am trying to create a face to pull on this dwg of a picket for a handrail, but redefining lines does nothing unless I create a million triangular faces which takes forever and gives me ugly gaps in between lines and the small arcs that make up the shape. Does anyone know of a faster method or extension to create a face on a complex shape like this? I've tried welding it, grouping it, redefining arcs, etc. Nothing works.

        Answered my own question. Used the Weld extension to join all the lines into one.
