Hello Michael,
Back again with my filleting problems.
I'm trying to do the sweep from a .4375 fillet to the 1/8" fillet.
I made the basic body shape with both a 1/8" fillet and 7/16" fillet and then copy the curve pieces and swept them to make the blend patch.
The problem is that I copied the .4375 arc piece, but it's not really in the right place. It should start roughly where I marked it.
I could accomplish what I want if I could move the large arc piece perpendicular to the sweep curve into the right place in the right orientation. I'm not exactly sure how to do this. I can guess some ways, but maybe there is a preferred method. I know can put a plane or line perpendicular to the curve it the right place, but not sure how to re-orient the piece. C-plane there perhaps?
Also, when I start piecing things together I'm trying to decide the best way.
1) I can lay the sweep surface on top of the large fillet piece and make little patches to fill the holes.
2) or use the surface to trim the 1/8" filleted body. Cut it up and cut up the 7/16" filleted piece and then glue the pieces together.
Which is best?
