Bounding hulls ... enclosing hulls are supposed to be same for before and after. I probably didn't express that very well in writing.
The idea there is that when you have a packed dense array of these (foam) ... you can "WELD" the skeletal foam items together and the shared edges "blend" together via coincident faces.
I'm uploading a new result now.
Look in the manifoldlab folder ... "3dfract" and you will find a file "monodisperse" or something like that. This is the "input file" that I'm eventually trying to apply this workflow to. It is too heavy so I have to delete some tidbits.
Still seems a bit of a hassle to get to the weldables. I Weld using manifoldlabs STITCH function.
I have to play a bit with stored seletions ... not that the are bad. I just wanted something more clever and fewer steps.
More results ... after still too many steps
