Creating a Blend

Creating a Blend

Creating a Blend

(OP)
When I am creating a blend, and I am sketching my sections what if I start in a different area and now the yellow arrow is in a different location from the previous section.

How do I change the the location of the yellow arrow? I want to avoid a twist in my part

RE: Creating a Blend

your arrows need to be in the same direction if you don't want it to twist.  say you are creating a sketch of a c- channel and say the arrow on the first sketch you are creating is on the bottom pointing to the left, then you go to the second sketch and you create a smaller c-channel shape but the arrow is on the top pointing to the left then pick the point(end of the line, helps if you query select)where you want the arrow to start from, right click and select start point, this will fix your problem.
