Creating an Object Curved in Both the X and Y Coordinates

joseph_fournier

Hi,

I am trying to design the upper body part of a Humanoid Robot. The chest of the Robot is curved frontward (after extrusion) as a Human chest should be. I am now trying to add the shoulders to the chest I have designed and extruded. Thus, the front part of the chest should continue in order to form the shoulders. Meanwhile, I am having issues creating the curved shoulders upon the curved chest. Basically, I am trying to design (part of) the upper body (without the limbs and without the back) of my Robot, just as a human is configured. How could this be achieved?

Thank you for your help.

Joseph

I'd say your best bet is to use a Loft with guide curves. You will find a few tips in this webinar, https://www.onshape.com/videos/webinar-lofts-in-onshape-june-21-2016

If you are willing to make your doc public and share the url here I am sure people will jump in with more help.

Thank you Bruce. This is a Great video. I should be able to use the Loft feature in order to achieve my Design.

Thank you again.
