So let's take a look at this surface here, and I'm going to go ahead and do a quick continuity, surface continuity evaluation on this, and I'm going to check for tangency. So let's go ahead and check in between here. Those don't look too bad. Down here we fail, fail, fail. Tangent there. So you can see that we've got some issues, and right now we've got positional error all the way along this filet edge, so when this filet was created, obviously that's when the error occurred. So we're going to take a look at how we can fix this, but I'm just going to isolate on two surfaces, and show you a typical workflow that you can use. Again there is many different ways of fixing errors. Some of them are a little bit more precise, some of them are a little bit more long-winded, but in this case, I'll show you a very typical workflow…
