Guide curves provide us with much more flexibility when it comes to lofted features that we lack when applying the feature without them. Because of that, we will create the shape shown in the following diagram to learn about one way of using Guide Curves:
Let's go through our usual procedure of creating models: planning, sketching, and applying features. Our plan will be to create the two profiles and then create the four guidelines. After that, we will apply the lofted boss feature. Follow these steps to implement this plan:
- Create an extra plane by offsetting the front plane by 50 mm. Then, create the two circle profiles ...
