      I have designed a curette; this is s surgical "spoon" used to scoop out soft tissue. The design of the business end is like an egg cut down the middle. I can easily add a handle, but the whole thing is just a surface.
      Here is my question: how do I make this a solid so that I can print it? I tried copying and moving it a millimeter, but then to solidify (?) it, I had to draw a whole bunch of lines. If there is an easier way, I really need to know.
