Hi @jousefm @Retsam  
I tried merging the STL Files both manually and with the scripts that are here: [Merging STL files - #2 by jousefm](https://www.simscale.com/forum/t/merging-stl-files/83729/2) ; and I still get an assembly of faces instead of an assembly of solids as result. I even checked the code of the files after both scripts ran and everything looks fine.

 ![SharedScreenshot3](https://www.simscale.com/forum/uploads/default/original/3X/f/5/f595ef8466d875b020b2a9577ee87edefc4c7411.jpeg) All solids are listed on the file, and they all start and end as I think they should…  
In one of my uploads ( [https://www.simscale.com/workbench/?pid=2840410787042819858&amp;mi=geometry%3A175&amp;mt=GEOMETRY](https://www.simscale.com/workbench/?pid=2840410787042819858&amp;mi=geometry%3A175&amp;mt=GEOMETRY)) I somehow managed to upload two separate solids, but when I repeat the process using the full car geometry the same assembly of surfaces appears.  
Do you guys have any other suggestions?  
Thank you in advance,  
Antonio Targat
