Sketching on a curved surface...help
(OP)
I am relatively new to this program and I need help! I have an elliptical shaped sketch, which has been extruded. This sketch has a radius on both sides. The question is in regards to making a new sketch on the surface of the elliptical. It does not like this. My initial thought would be to do a 3D sketch, or create a plane that is parallel to the surface of where I want to sketch, but neither of these seem to work. The 3D sketch makes the most sense to me, but if this is possible how can I build a relation in 3D? Thanks

You could consider a shut-off from behind the part up to the barbs, but you wouldn't be able to have fully-round barbs that way (without some fancy tricks). Check it out. (I could go into more detail, but it's tough with words and no models.)

Or maybe join the two posts to create one obround post?
Or even have the posts vertical instead of horizontal?
