I've tried this every way I can think of with no results so it's time to ask...
The two rail sweep tutorial shows how to apply an open vector to two rails, one inside the other. The end result is sort of a frame - open in the middle.
I'm trying to put an edge on a solid panel that looks as though it might have been made on a router table. The "Panels and Shields" section of the supplied clipart shows multiple examples of what I'm trying to achieve...a solid panel with "curvy" edges.
Any help?
Thanks!

Re: Two rail sweep on a solid panel
Use two rail sweep. One rail on edge of material. Put a tiny rectangle in the middle of the material as the second rail.
Use a leg on the third rail. Check fill center.

Re: Two rail sweep on a solid panel
If it's a solid panel why not use the modeling toolpath? It would machine much quicker.
