Syko, what did you model this with?  The original is showing a lot of non-manifold edges.  When I run through MeshLab and look at the wireframe mesh there are facets all over the place where there shouldn't be.  I'll get a pic posted of what I see when I can download it.

EDIT:

The darker red in the center is a facet that is created between the 3 vertices of the corner and the inside edge.  This shouldn't be there...
