Hi Everyone... I'm working on this closed mesh object in AutoCAD but can't turn it into a solid... Any suggestions?

I've attached the file. Not sure how to turn this into a solid. My goal is to export to STL so I can print in 3D...

If you right click the mouse on the history browser, and click on properties it will show you if it is a "watertight" body or not. And from there, at the same time, you can also save it as a Mesh.
