I've finally managed to make my site model into a manifold solid but when I try to use Slicer5 with the settings of spacing and thickness being 3mm (for 3mm MDF) SketchUp crashes. Is there any reason why this would happen?

Many thanks,all of your posts have been really helpful.

Thank you, both. I thought of slicing them seperately, but my buildings intersect the terrain. Is there a way to make there bases follow the terrain?

Hey there,

I'm relatively new to SketchUp, but have been getting along pretty well. I'm currently trying to use the plugin Slicer5 to convert a SketchUp site model I have into pieces which can be laser cut.

The problem I'm having is though that I can't seem to make it into a manifold solid. Where the buildings are meeting the terrain I can't seem to get them to make a solid. I've tried drawing edges along them, but Solid Inspector is still highlighting them all as errors.

Does anyone have any tips on how to make this work?

Thank you.

p.s. I've attached the file, in case that helps.
