How can I fill the space between multiple fills?
![Unshelled](https://profiles.onshape.com/f60b628cddb915e271a157e4fcd8b410718dc4a9e9c7e2b2cc0aaeadc94be749.png)
I'm wondering how I can fill in the space between this geometry in order to make it completely solid. Any suggestions?

The Enclose feature works, but the Fill command will also make a solid if it creates an enclosed volume. In your case it didn't because you have a lot of separate surface bodies, but if you make each fill feature "Add" as you go, it should make a solid. You'll be able to tell because you'll see "Surface 1" (or whatever) disappear from the Surfaces folder and you'll see "Part 1" appear in the Parts folder. You can also confirm with a section view (shift x)Evan Reese1
