Question About Swept Protrusions
Question About Swept Protrusions
(OP)
I am working on a spiral staircase and am modelling the stair case stringers (flat side that the edge of the steps attaches to). I created a sketch of my radius and the end profiles and set them at their proper locations. When I sweep the protrusion it works fine except that the sweep intersects the sketches at perpendicular instead of at the angle between the two sketches. It gives the effect that the stringer flairs out to flat on the bottom and curves up on the top. How do I suppress this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can't idiotproof against a sufficiently talented idiot

Please forward the info from your trainer. I've been basically learning SE on my own. I have experience with Mechanical Desktop so it has not been impossible, but some of the functions (namely 3D Patterns, etc.) just do not make much sense and the tutorials don't address these very well.

Any chance of this idea getting back to the developers? Largely I've found S-E to be highly capable, and entirely adequate for MUCH of my work, but ...
I'm also interested in the question of this thread.
Good luck guys and please post here with any results!
