Trying to create a nice corner surface on a sheet metal assembly. The corner can be from a non-sheet metal feature. What is the best feature to use for such a part?4
I tried using loft & boundary boss/base but both gave me error messages. I have 2 sketches and a 3rd curve sketch. There is also a 4th sketch like 1 & 2 is a profile to be surfaced to.

Hi Jim
Here is my corner
Here is how I created it
The first thing I did was to edit your sketches and to convert the outer sketch elements to construction lines ( I could of deleted them but I didn't)
I then created a boundary surface, using the sketches on plane 1 and plane 2 as the direction 1 curves and the third sketch as the direction 2 curve
I then used the thicken feature to thicken the boundary surface
Hope this helps
Hi Paul and thank you for your efforts. Funny you should reply as I had a grandmother who was a Cullen, so we could be relatives. I could not get my model to work after changing the outer boundaries to construction. My SW 2015 would not accept the 2nd sketch for curve direction 1. I have fitted your model in and there is a small angle gap at the bottom of the part. I knew that corner was going to be a pain.
Thanks again.
Is this what you require?
