Step 2: Mesh Geometry in GAMBIT
Mesh Edges
Before we mesh the facefaces, we should mesh the edges to so that we can better define our the mesh.
Following figure shows the edges with different mesh properties.

Select the face one by one. The face will change color. You can use the defaults of Quad (i.e. quadrilaterals) and Map. Click Apply.
The meshed face should look as follows:

Next mesh face face2 in a similar fashion.
The resultant mesh should look as follows:
