Hi Mark, can you post a 3DM file with your new curve setup in it that you are having problems with?

That would make it easier for me to check it out and possibly recommend a strategy.


So I know I just got done telling you lofting things in a larger sheet (and then trimming them), but if you have a piece that behaves more like a protrusion from a base shape, then that may not fit into that same category. It will probably be something like model the protrusion as a different pieces and either fillet or blend it in to the other piece.


The "build in one large piece" type strategy is for things that are more like one smoother sheet. It can change shape to a certain degree over it, but trying to pull out a thin protrusion is too much shape mutation, such things will likely need to be a separate piece for the protrusion.
