Hello everyone,
I recently started playing around with solidworks because I was bored. So, i've been making a model for a race car as a first project. However now when I make two sweeps in one part, the first sweep is removed when the second is created. If I suppress the second sweep the first one shows again.
As a side question, does anyone know how to copy an edge of a surface onto a sketch plane?
I attached my project for reference, the problem occurs between sweep11 and sweep14 in the front bumper part.
The two sweep features work OK when merge result isn't selected resulting in 2 bodies. The sweep would not build for me or using the combine feature to merge the two bodies together. Your 2nd sweep profile sketch is the reason why. This sketch needs to be more simple and more similar to the profile of the face the sketch is drawn on or you end up with the 'cannot build due to geometry problems or zero thickness" type errors. I deleted the spline(s) you had in this profile sketch, retained the vertical lines for the width, converted entities of the face and trimmed the slop away.
The surface edge onto plane would be convert entity sketch tool whilst in a sketch on the plane you want the edge placed upon.
