Hi guys,
I'm trying to design a fan duct and I'm having some difficulties trying to loft 3 different sketches together. Can someone please help me? I've included a video demonstrating what I'm trying to achieve and here's a link to the design: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/597ac7b6ec82f03905c74da4/w/ebf8bcfcd51a2db5b7871843/e/b74147f75c889078d92e3bdc
Many thanks in advance for any assistance :)

Create a surface of the top 2 sketches. then create your loft from the circle and that surface.

Thanks so much mate! I love how versatile onshape is and it's so nice to learn new things all the time. Thank you!
Sorry if this is a stupid question but how do I create a surface of the 2 sketches? I've tried offset surface, extrude etc. but I can't seem to figure out how to do it. Sorry, I've never used surfaces before…
Edit: Figured it out using fill. Filled the first sketch, then filled the other sketch and added it to the previous surface.
not a stupid question. but you will learn a lot by going through the surfacing tutorials at learn.onshape.com.
For this example I just used a loft and used the 2 sides (4 segments) for the profile.
