Re: Loft rebuild Error
Jason Edelman Apr 16, 2018 1:52 PM (in response to Tim Brummer)You selected 4 edges of your solid part...
The most robust modeling method is to show your sketch used to construct solid.
Or right click and use SelectionManager, but your loft will be tied to solid body edge and can cause future challenges.
Also strategically splitting the ellipse into four segments will help with the loft connectors.

as Ruben suggested, please post your model here so other can try

Tim Brummer Apr 16, 2018 2:50 PM (in response to Rubén Rodolfo Balderrama)I have Solidworks basic, I am not seeing the same menus you show. Does this only work in Solidworks Pro?

Re: Loft rebuild Error
Jason Edelman Apr 16, 2018 2:55 PM (in response to Tim Brummer)Tim, Right click over Boss-Extrude4 and show the sketch, when lofting select the sketch and not the solid body.
The method Ruben is showing you adds another sketch, but you already have a sketch to use.
Less sketches and less feature create a more robust model (ie. make changes with less errors)

Re: Loft rebuild Error
Tim Brummer Apr 16, 2018 3:09 PM (in response to Jason Edelman)I must be doing a step wrong.
When I right click on Boss extrude 4 then the sketch icon, the loft icon disappears from the menu.If I open loft first then click on Boss extrude 4, there is no sketch option.
