Can this be done in MoI

Hi All,

I am trying to construct a tile which will connect seamlessly with identical copies in any rotation.

My difficulty is trying to create the section that lies between the two cones outlined in magenta. I have tried a number of tools and I inevitably end up with a visible join where the surface connects to the cone and also a crease from the centre of the cone (seen on the right) to the cyan colored profile curve ( this particular example was constructed using the sweep method). The construction is made more difficult due to the fact that the cone surface and the edges in magenta need to remain unaltered for the design to work although the cyan profile can be altered if necessary.

To remove the crease and join I am thinking that my best solution would be to create a network using profiles to control the surface although I am unsure of the best way to go about this
.
Any advice greatly appreciated.

Jim
