Having issues remembering how to make a spoon...

Its been quite a while since I drafted anything. I am on the trial version of MOI v4. My previous experience is with rhino and very little fusion 360. I have been able to accomplish about everything I need to so far but this is giving me issues :-D. I am just about there but... I am missing something.

Most of what I draw up will be used to cut out on my cnc router doing double sided milling. In the past I made a spoon and other dish shapes quite easily but now I need to learn in MOI...


As you can see in the screenshot I more or less have a profile of what I want but when I sweep its getting very narrow at the tips. I want to maintain that thickness all around. Any input would be appreciated.

Hi buzzsawddog, check out this previous thread for some spoon making examples and tutorials:

Also if you are still needing help with your sweep can you please post the .3dm model file with the curves in it.

Thanks,
- Michael

This is exactly what I needed to Jog my memory... Thanks! My issue first came from not offsetting. I got frustrated thinking I should be able to extrude my surface but that did not work. Once I saw that option I was able to, after figuring out the fillet, make a thing that looked like a bowl. I redid my handle and ended up here.
