Finial

Post by buck4 »

Greetings, I have a 3D issue, been requested to make some base board corner blocks for a older home 1" square x 9" tall with 1 1/2" finial. I created the 3D profile using two rail sweep. My issue is how do I rap the second 3D profile around the first. It only needs 1/2 of the second profile (finial) Any help would be great.
Thank you , and Merry Christmas to all.

Try using the profiles as the rails for the 2 rail sweep and the arc as the shape...
Hope this works

That's the problem that I find all the time trying to learn 3D modelling :oops: :oops: Hopefully I will get there one day but just now I am never sure which would be the best modelling tool to use & even if I do get the right tool then I still need to try & figure out the best way to go about things lol
