NetFabb
Netfabb® is an additive manufacturing software has tools that help streamline your additive workflow and quickly get from a 3D model to successfully printed parts. It allows you to either manipulate an existing 3D object, or to create a new one, and prepare it for additive manufacturing technologies like 3D Printing.
One useful feature of this software is it's Automatic Repair ability. When importing a 3D Object File (.obj, .stl, etc.) that is damaged in some way (holes in mesh, etc.) it will give you a few options before importing the parts. Make sure there is a check next to: "Stitch all", "Create Group with Stitched Parts", and "Automatic Part Repair". Also, next to "Automatic Part Repair", choose "Extended Repair in the dropdown menu. After making these selections, click "Add Parts". If there are still errors in your part(s), explore the "Modify" tab and it's included features to fix your specific error. The "Manipulate Mesh" feature is a good starting place.
Another useful feature is the "Cut" tool. This is helpful when your 3D Object File has some flaws, or extra parts that you want to exclude.
