Lofted Cut Leaves Lines

Lofted Cut Leaves Lines

Lofted Cut Leaves Lines

(OP)
Please look at image attached.

I used lofted cut (please suggest better ways of doing that) to cut off the revolve where I needed. That was fine. However, the lofted cut left lines which interfere and prevent bulk filleting the 3mm.

How could I do this so I don't create these lines?

Thanks

RE: Lofted Cut Leaves Lines

It looks like the faces are coincident; could you use a reference plane & extruded cut through just those bodies?

RE: Lofted Cut Leaves Lines

Guessing you made the circular bodies with a revolve, can't you just use an revolve angle which would suit your needs?

Thanks.

I actually wasn't putting much thought into it! I've never used the revolve angle before. Revolved it round to where I wanted it and chopped off the triangular prisms at the top.
