      Hi guys, I tried to use the Slicer5 plugin on this model and it said that the object is not manifold solid. I used to “find edge gaps” tool and it said that there were no open ends. Would appreciate any help on this, thank you, guys! File below.

        Surface borders, holes in the surface, and some internal face edges. Use Solid Inspector 2 to help identify problems.

        What version of SketchUp are you actually using? Your profile indicates 2019 Free/Make which is impossible since there never was such a version.

          Your model is not a manifold solid.

          Change the way you view it to help yourself.

          View > Hidden Geometry > On - you'll see lots of stuff that was hidden or smoothed.
          That doesn't improve solidity tests.

          View Mode > MonoChrome to remove confusion of a textured surface.
          There are several 'flaps' and edges with only one face - every edge must have exactly one face.

          Manually fix these errors and the object should then report as a Solid in Entity info.

          To help identify the problem geometry I suggest you use Thomthom's SolidInspector2... and then doing a manual fix by editing it.
          Using a Style with distinctive profiles and endpoints might help.
          Also Xray mode would let you see what's a problem 'internally'...

          My Solidsolver fails to mend it at all.
          Fixit101 fixes somethings but then leaves it not solid !

          PS: Delete the unwanted 'Sumele' figure as that doesn't help anything...
