  regular polyhedra as solids

In the binaries newsgroup often appear examples of the 5 regular
polyhedra (the Platonic solids). In most cases they are constructed as
the union or merge of triangles or polygons.
For some application I wanted to apply CSG (difference) on some of those
objects, but for a reason unknown to me this failed. I have the
impression that the union or merge of triangles or polygons doesn't
produce a solid.
Is this exact and if so what can be done to define those objects as
solids.
Thanks,
