PS You can even go more speedy on making only one Curve projected ! ;) Result will be the same!
(if you want same form Top / Bottom)
So ultra speed! :)

Good morning,

Michael , this is a massive help , thank you very much.

I really appreciate you taking the time for such a detailed explanation.

The first technique you show is very much in the way i like to work (sketching out rough large shapes then refining as needed ) i had the first half of the process correct - overall shape lofted and boolean diff of my profiles , it was the transition between shapes that eluded me as i wasn't joining the curves so my fillet was failing as the object wasn't joined or a solid i believe.

A member of this forum , corchet showed me a couple ways yesterday that were extremely and helped point me in the right direction.

With the input i have had back from yourself , corchet and frenchy Pilou , im pretty much setup for most of the common shapes i use and hope to contribute back to this amazing forum of folks you have here.

Thanks to you all.


Matt

Hey there Frenchy Pilou,

This is really helpful and very quick , awesome !

Thanks for the tips , speed is always at the front of my mind when getting ideas down quickly , one of the main reasons i have picked up Moi , this solution is very useful to know for that reason , im going to look into blend to se if the bulge can be removed totally producing a linear blend that i can still fillet after.

Im sure i will have more questions further down the road but this forum has already been a huge help with folks like yourself and others who have had input already.


Cheers

Matt

Hi Matt, you're welcome I'm glad that helped!

re:

That would then be the same as Loft between 2 curves.

You have also something that can be used and explored : Construct /Inset function ;)
Works on Selection Surface (s) (some training & tests are necessary ;)

Here not with your form


Variations with your form ( Shell / Inset )
Maybe in this order : Volume - Trim by curves - Separate - Shell (flip) - Inset

Here only Shell + Fillets (light inside MOi)


Shell + Inset
