NX6 Modeling

NX6 Modeling

NX6 Modeling

(OP)
I am having trouble modeling a cast hook that isn't symmetrical.  I have attached the model that I have so far.  The part has two hooks cast into it, one near the bottom which I have modeled already.  The other one which I have sketched out on the model is near the top.  They both have the same basic shape but the top one has a round base.  I will attach a drawing to help explain.  Any recommendations?  Thanks.

RE: NX6 Modeling

I tried to model the hook by the drawing but was unsuccessful. It may be one of those instances where what looks good in 2D just doesn't add up in 3D modeling.  That being said, I did manage to create something that sorta, kinda fits the bill.  Hopefully some one can school us both.
