Complex Swept Cuts along multiple profiles

Hi All,

I'm relatively new to SolidWorks and have been having a problem while i was trying to do a butt-load of sweeps at the same time.

So basic sweep's don't like self intersecting profiles nor doing multiple sweeps.

Is there a way i can get around this and cut the same profile along every line in these sketches at once?

Cheers,

Chris

I have realised another angle to work might be to somehow add some thickness to the sketch lines and then do an extruded cut. is this possible?
 
It turns out i was looking for the thin feature within extruded cut
