Thanks for confirming the code itself was right. I figured out what I was doing wrong:

I was selecting "Part Studio 1" in the image without clicking the "Create version" button, first. Creating the version first resolves the issue and lets me bring in the part.

Re: Honeycomb pattern on a curved surface (Grid Extrude impossible).

Godspeed indeed. :D

Thank you - I will study and try to understand this approach. May ask more questions in the future. :)

Re: Parts list for dimensional wood projects?

@sloan_thrasher
Make sure you have the material option selected. If your material changes, remember to press the refresh button within the feature.

Also, I've pushed an update to allow for multi table support. I think this would be a valuable addition to the feature 😎

Curve pattern

Re: Honeycomb pattern on a curved surface (Grid Extrude impossible).

I wrote Grid Extrude and let the record reflect that I agree with @_anton here and that a slicer-side solution feels better to me and I do not condone making this many holes for performance reasons… but here's a way to do it lol. Your regeneration time is now over 100 seconds. Godspeed.

Re: Lofting

I'm no maestro, but here are a few thoughts:

Your modeling is chaotic, and hard to work through with all of the transforms. I don't see why they're necessary for this piece, I think I could easily model this in place, so that the part history is more easy to work through.
Loft can be tricky, I've modeled for a year+ (dozens of projects), and I still am careful to depend on it. If I think I'll need it, I often work out parts of my piece prior, so that I know I'll be able to reliably use it when I get to where I need it.
If you're ok with a generally fancied up end, and don't require anything specific, rotating the end profile of the curved bit might be ok for you.

I did the last process here, though I actually did it after failing to loft, so I wasted a ton of steps. As-is, you could just make a sketch on the end of the curved bit, use "use/project/convert (u)" to grab the profile, and then rotate it by 90 degrees using the lower edge of the piece as the axis.
