    Creating a sweep, loft or boundary boss along a 3D Spline?

    TheTick, it sounds like you may be onto the solution, but there are some things I should clarify first. > Looks like your ends are the same profile. They are. I created the profile in the first object, and then created a sketch block from that to guarantee the second part has an identical...

    Creating a sweep, loft or boundary boss along a 3D Spline?

    Oh, and if by "centerline" you mean changing the spline to construction geometry, this prevents it from being selected as a curve for Direction 2. It apparently has to be a regular spline (solid, not dashed).

    Creating a sweep, loft or boundary boss along a 3D Spline?

    For Boundary and Loft features, the guide spline must be coincident to the profile curves; it can't be in the center. The problem with using multiple splines is that I can't guarantee their curvature relative to each other. I need a way to simply ensure that the profile of the sketch, which...

    Creating a sweep, loft or boundary boss along a 3D Spline?

    Hey folks, I'm new here, and not exactly a seasoned SolidWorks user, so if there's anything about this question that breaks protocol or is overly ignorant, I apologize in advance. I've got identical sketches on two arbitrary planes which are predetermined (fixed inputs to the problem) and I...
