loft

I already posted this here (this is a duplicate) but this seems like the more appropriate forum. I have a boat that I'm trying to model based off of four lofted sketches. I've been trying to hollow it out; I tried using both shell and thickness to do so. In either case, whenever I try to take the top of the boat off using…

It's time to make a genie lamp for a ballet show. I'm stuck at making the lid. I've created a composite curve around the base part and it incorporates a bridging curve at the spout. The loop, as far as I can tell, is fully closed. The loft creation dialog won't let me select the composite curve. Any ideas? If we get past…

In featurescape I am trying to add a fillet on an edge between a rocket in and body (loft and extrude). I've manually put in in the fillet, but I would like to do it in featurescript ("TODO" in the feature script). I need form a query to find the edge. I've tried a bunch of things, but no avail. Something like ... var…

Hey, We have a legacy SW part that needs to be revised. I started to remodel in Onshape but found some lofting trouble. The end result should look like this. Where the big curved inside should really be cylindrical, and transition nicely into the straight side flaps. The curved outer rim is bigger in the middle than on the…

I'm trying to create a loft from a defined face to an created point. I always get the error LOFT_SELECT_PROFILES. //Loft var top = (normal * definition.Height) + origin; const vertexID = id + "topVertex"; opPoint(context,vertexID,{point : top}); var topVertex = qCreatedBy(vertexID, EntityType.VERTEX); var profiles =…

Hello I am currently working on two rectangular shapes where one is angled to the other by 15 degrees. I just need now to have some sort of bend on each corner to have a smooth connection. I tried to fillet/loft them but it just won't connect as smooth as possible. I am quite new to CAD sorry if this is obvious.…

Not having much success creating a surface of the geometry in orange. The red arrow points to the geometry I would like to use for the path / guide. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am trying to Loft between 4 Profiles and can't get it work in smooth way, whatever i try breaks some constraints (see below) or creates visible seams instead a smooth surface. https://cad.onshape.com/documents/da3a8c590dc62827f33a5612/w/97ef208146d4363f51be660c/e/3724355a8d2aec9c863e438a Constraints: - All surfaces must…

Im ty to create a set of inclined planes which I would like to join to top of a shell. However, when trying to use a loft it looks crappy as the loft looks like it is using a point on the shell as an unwanted vertices. How do you do this>…

I am lofting a changing profile P(t) where t is a parameter tmin < t < tmax. I can generate the profile at any t so any number of intermediate profiles are possible. I could also generate the guide curves for the profiles. However is there any benefit to using guide curves if I can just generate more intermediate profiles…

I have a prototype 3D shape made from cardboard and tape that I'd like to model for 3D printing. It looks like this (minus the flaps): At first I decided it would be best to start with a side profile and extrude. But it seems problematic with all the angles it has in 3D: So I tried lofting. It wouldn't allow me to create a…

Hi, One surface is defined to a sketch plane. The same surface shape, slightly rotated, is defined to a parallel sketch plane. Both surfaces have the same number of vertices and the two surfaces do not share a common axis of rotation. A loft between the two, using matching vertices, does not regenerate properly due to a…

Say I have a extruded 2D spiral like this onshape document. How would I create a Z axis twist, such as a spring, or otherwise defined by a function.

Hello, I am trying to build a FeatureScript that will take external data, generate offset sketches and loft them. Each sketch is essentially a profile. However, I am having difficulties creating an array of sketches or profiles to then pass to the opLoft function #N00B. Could anyone take a look at my code? FeatureScript…

Hello, i'm new in with Onshape, and after 3 weeks it's working wel. But now i try to create a roof for a bus, and i try to create it with the loft function, but after a few hours of thinking, trying and watching youtube i still have no roof. Where do i have to start first? Thanks for helping.
