Loft feature

Loft feature

(OP)
Hello guys
I have a problem in performing the loft feature on either the shell or solid. how am I going to arrange two different sections in one part to apply loft on them?
can anyone please post the steps in detail :)

Grateful in advance

RE: Loft feature

Position a datum plane on the desired location and create your first cross section. Repeat that for the other one and then create the loft.

Or merge two instances to create a new part and add the loft in that part.

Thank you
but are you sure that I can sketch any geometry I want? How exactly can I sketch on a datum plane?

Kind regards

RE: Loft feature

Create a datum plane and maybe also a datum axis. When you create a shell feature (planar) or something else, you can select the datum plane as sketch basis and the datum axis for the orientation.

Repeat that as often as necessary.
