Hi marzRX,

I see the same problem, but only if I sweep both circles. If I sweep a single circle then boolean union between the cylinder (resulting from sweep) and a sphere works fine. In your screenshot it looks like the bent cylinder has a constant diameter. So, maybe sweeping 1 circle will give the shape that you want.

Hi, Peer

Thank you. Your answer is helpful.

Single circle sweep work fine. I will also try about the curved sweep.

> In your screenshot it looks like the bent cylinder has a constant diameter.
Yes. same diameter. :)

Thank you ! I can now make it without artifacts.

I have had Boolean-Union failures for cylinders and spheres, and Boolean-Diff failed even if sphere and cylinder were combined.
All of these problems have been eliminated and modeling can now be done in a short time. ;)
