SketchUp struggles to stitch together faces smaller than 1mm. If Solid Inspector² fails to fix holes, scale your entire model up by 100x or 1000x, run the inspector again, and scale it back down when finished.

The plugin will open a dialogue box listing the errors.

If you have ever tried to export an STL file only to have your slicer complain that the model is "not watertight" or "non-manifold," this tool is the solution.

Solid Inspector 2 is a SketchUp extension that diagnoses and helps repair geometry problems preventing a model from being a valid “solid” (a closed, manifold, watertight volume). It’s widely used by architects, makers, 3D-printing enthusiasts, and anyone exporting SketchUp models to formats or workflows that require solid geometry (STL exports, Boolean operations, physics simulations, and some CAD imports).

If you’ve ever spent 20 minutes trying to figure out why SketchUp won’t let you click "Subtract" in the Solid Tools, you’ve met the invisible enemy: non-solid geometry . This link or copies made by others cannot be deleted

Be aware of these limitations when working with Solid Inspector²:

A dialog box will appear listing all issues preventing your model from being a solid. Red-marked items indicate critical errors (holes, inverted faces); yellow-marked items indicate "dirtiness" (internal edges/faces).

Highlights lines that do not contribute to a face.

Functions like Union, Subtract, Intersect, and Trim only work on solid groups.
