Marshall:
SolidWorks has very limited surfacing ability. Many people use Rhino and SW in
tandem to either add surfaces to SW models or more common, to repair imported
IGES models. In SW there is no way to repair an imported surface. Very few
models come into SW without some sort of problem. Even when models come in
correctly SW often will have problems with them and fail to perform certain
functions.
In these cases the only alternative is to fix the surfaces in a product like
Rhino.
