shavehorse

Hi, I want to create a shave horse. I made the "bank" already and now I want to create the legs. The legs should be tapered on both sides. So far so good. But how can I create slanted bench legs?

@stefan_schumm, for more specific help, please share a link to your document.

Here is one way you can achieve tapered legs for a traditional Shave Horse:

• Create a sketch normal to the back of the body.
• Extrude the sketch.

Hi Michael, thank you for answer my question. But this was not the problem, because I wanted the create slanted legs in x and y direction.

 in the meantime I had at least my first solving

 here I made a simple stool wich shows you how I want the legs to be. Last thing to solve is to level the head of the leg with the surface of the chair.
I'm just getting started with onshape and every day I learn a lot more. 
Thank you again for your efforts.
