Can anyone tell me why I can't loft this again? They are both surface lofts, if I do solid they generate, but surface do not.

Your "sketch6" has overlapping segments and you didn't select it the same way.
It worked on for the first loft because you picked a "face" (and onshape uses the boundary of that face), but you selected the sketch from the feature tree on the second loft which adds all the "edges" in the sketch, which overlap.

Try unchecking "Merge with all" and be explicit about which surface you want the new loft to join. Alternatively, select New instead of Add.

Not sure what the problem is. If you could provide a link to your public document.

Thank you! I didn't see the overlapping.
