Repair the holes
Next, we will repair the holes in the model. There is probably a large hole
under the chin where the scanner could not gather information and pos-
sibly a hole in the top of the head.
Select the Repair tool (looks like a red cross). The model will turn blue
and you can see the triangles in the mesh. There will be yellow spots
where repairs are necessary. To repair the model, click the Automatic
Repair button.
Then select Default Repair from the dialog box and press the Execute
button. netfabb will ask you if you want to remove the old part. Click Yes.
Then click the Apply Repair button at the bottom of the right-hand side
of the screen. In the dialog box that opens, select Yes when asked if you
want to remove the old part. Figure 9-23 shows the repaired model.
Figure 9-23. Look at all those triangles!
Save in netfabb file format

netfabb may warn you that there are issues with your file. If you see a big
red X when you attempt to export your model, click the Repair button
on the dialog box. The X will become a green checkmark.
Then click Export to save the STL.
