How to cut to follow a curve.
I'm having trouble getting a cut to follow a curve. For some reason the cut won't offset from the curved surface. Any ideas???

Craig,
Are you trying to make cut extrude 55 a cut which follows the curvature of the top face?
A way you could do this is first create a offset surface (in the offset toolbar) of the value you want to cut to. Then in the extrude cut option select upto surface and select the surface just created.

Re: How to cut to follow a curve.
you can also use the "from" option just above the direction 1 and select "surface/face/plane". Use the top surface of your part as the reference face. This allows your extruded cut to start from the top curved surface.
