Loft problem

tyler_geiger873

so basically im making this thing and i have all these constraints and stuff but when I go to loft it and try to use guids or path they don't work I can only get it to work without them but I need them, can I get some help?

Looking at your model, a few tips.

• When possible, take advantage of symmetry. Don't make the whole part. Make half or a quarter and mirror.
• Loft surfaces, rather than solids. Then thicken or enclose.
• If you are going to use a guide. Use the Pierce constraint to make sure the profiles and guides intersect. In the picture below, I used the Split sketch tool to split your profiles into 1/4 of the part. I also deleted some dimensions and added Pierce constraints.

so I pierced all of the edges and did what you said but it still says all guids should intersect profiles or something like that what am I doing wrong, here's the link now https://cad.onshape.com/documents/2e559d51465c960ecc2071ec/w/18a8db6e194f3f7a1ee57f69/e/f8944e8860685539cc359774?renderMode=0&uiState=68277da6105a6069773630c7
