[Chimera-users] Hollow Sticks When Exporting as STLs?

Hello, I hope to make this question as direct and simple as I can! When I export a scene of a molecule displayed as a ball-and-stick as a STL, I find that many of my "stick" portions are hollow. This creates thin, weak walls for 3D printing. I've included a screenshot of an intended plane cut from Meshmixer so that you can see the internal structure. What am I doing incorrectly? Is there something I can do in Chimera to export a solid object with no "hollow tubes." Fixing this with 3d programs can be time consuming.
