Assembly mating?

[element94]

Does anyone know how to get a part to follow a path with multiple radi? I can make one part tangent to a section on another part but it will only follow that radius when dragging. How can I get the part to follow the path if it has several bends and curves? Can it be done?

Look in SW Help for Cam Mates. Also, try visiting this site, you can download files and "reverse engineer" some of his things.

Chance the radii sketches to a single Composite curve.

I tried the composite curve, no luck.
