Vertical Lofting with rebuild curves with same number of control points can't not make the trick ?
(in this particular symmetric piece)

Hi Pilou,

When curves are of different lengths and also changing in shape the difficult thing can be about how the surface is formed by the connection between the curves. Just connecting the same percent distance along one curve to the same percent on the other sometimes isn't good. There can be too much slanting.

When that's the case it can be good to build separate surfaces for the different shapes rather than trying to squeeze it into one single surface.

>> Probably a different CAD program with more sophisticated fillets would do ok on that one.

Would you class Fusion 360 or Rhino better for filleting and a good companion to Moi3d? I hate Autodesk's online staying connected game though!

Thanks for all the help and tips though.

Hi Curious,

Fusion 360 - yes better at filleting.

Rhino - not really better at filleting but has other kinds of surface modeling tools that can make it a useful companion.

Some other ones that are good for filleting are ViaCAD and OnShape.

...and the free DesignSpark Mechanical ;) (not a monster like Fusion 360 or OnShape , just a little cat! :)

Fillets in direct Modeling!

Subdivision inside Moi



After Subdivision Moi can only make a little fillet! DesignSpark can make many more!
And of course also when Moi fails for complex fillets!



Of course without Subdivision ...in pure Moi Nurbs...no problem! ;)
