Hi!

Can't quite figure out how to Google this question.

Essentially, I modeled an object that was composed of two small rings abutting a tube. When I printed it, the rings basically popped off.

I've gone in before and manually removed faces to 'join' objects, but the rings are an .stl I downloaded, and are complicated and threaded on the inside with many facets on the surface.

Is there an easy way to abutt things and make sure they're printed as a continuous object, and not just three parts on top of each other that will pop off?
