problem with converting curve to mesh

Hello,
I’m practicing with Bezier Curves by trying to make a simple key. Nothing fancy but it’s a start. At this point I’m trying to convert it to mesh by pressing ALT+C and when I do that, instead of getting a nice closed shape, the hold in my key breaks and the top and lower part of the key remains invisible.

If someone feels like having a look at it and tell me what I do wrong, I attached the blend file to this message.

Thank you very much

When I use Alt+C to convert to a mesh I get


Note you convert in Object Mode not Edit mode

For your curve object, reduce the curve bevel depth so you don’t get intercepting geometry

You’re right, my problem was that I tried doing it in Edit mode! It’s working fine now.
As for the curve bevel, before to convert it to mesh I reduced it from 0.35 (I think) to something like 0.05. It looks much better to :slight_smile:

This is my very first attempt to make something wiht Blender so the learning curve is very steep lol

Thank you
