Hi,
I'm attempting to create a surface model based on a foam model that I have created. I am having trouble creating the top surface.
My process so far:
1. create 3D curve (using projected curve, sketch on sketch, based on pictures of the foam model) to define surface boundary
2. create 3 constraint curves
3. Create fill surface: here is my problem, while the feature does build, the resulting geometry is super wacky and not symetrical.
Anyone have any ideas as to how to remedy this problem?
Attached is the SW model and an image that may help to explain what i am trying to achieve. (I want the surface to be smooth over most of it but have a slight sharp trailing edge)
Cheers,
Tom
I think you'll need to break it up into two sections. This will require new sketches where you convert parts of the existing curves. First do the back portion where you do not need it continuous:
Then do the front portion. When you select the top arc where you want it continuous set it to "Normal To Profile", and when you select the edge of the surface you already created set it to "Tangency To Face".
Then if you knit the surfaces and mirror them you will see it is continuous.
