Hi Dan yes if you could please post the file that would help. It looks like MoI is having difficulty trimming the fillets against each other though - it may help if you were to include the other neighboring edges in the fillet as well. That would allow the filleter to make a corner juncture patch instead of trying to intersect fillets of different sizes with each other which is an area that can tend to be buggy in the geometry library that MoI uses for fillet calculations.

Thanks for your quick reply guys, file attached :)
Bevelling all edges won't work either - is there a thread or tutorial you could point me to, to better undestand point distribution in MOI3D? I am coming from poly-modelling background and just started working my way into nurbsland.

Loving this software already, though.

Thanks
Dan

Hi,

while i can't help with your question i would take a look at free (for non-commercial usage)
solutions like Autodesk 123D Design etc, which can fillet the edges.

With your actual curves you can make something like that

Select a line of curves / Join

Select all joined Curves / Loft

Close head curve with a line then Loft

So no need fillet! :)



But better to build longitudinal lines as curves and not polylines!
Here redraw the curves free form "through" your points then Loft

Hi Dan, check out here for some tips for people coming from a poly modeling background:

The strategies you use in NURBS modeling are pretty different than what you do in poly modeling.

Thanks Michael,

I am starting to get my head around it. After a fair amount of tutorials and forum threads it all starts making sense :)

Cheers
Dan
