Hi Foamers,

I am having trouble snapping around a geometry that looks like a 2 prong fork made with plane surfaces. I have attached my stl, snappyHexMesh and surfaceFeatureExtract dictionaries. These work very well if I have a plane surface however when I have the geometry in consideration they meshing becomes weird and I get a checkMesh error. Can somebody help me with this please?

I am using v2.3.0.

EDIT: I was unable to attach the STL file because of space restrictions. I have attached the geo file instead that will need to be meshed using gmsh. I use 2D mesh to mesh it and then save it as a complex.stl in the triSurface folder. I will post a dropbox link to the files here soon.

Thank you.
Regards,
Ripu
