Hi Chuck, I'm entirely sure if this is what you mean, but if you want to have a box on one side, you can create it by this method.

Start by running the Draw solid / Box command, located here:



Place the first 2 points something like this:



And the 3rd point for the height something like this:



Then in this case I went to the Front view and dragged the box downwards a bit, to result in this:



Now you can fuse those 2 pieces together by selecting them both and running Construct / Boolean / Union.

Can you please take a screenshot and post that here? You can do that by pressing the "Print screen" key on your keyboard which will take a snapshot of the screen and put it into the clipboard.

Then you can go to an image editing program (Windows paintbrush will do if you don't have anything else), and paste that in and save as a .jpg file, and then attach that here (or e-mail to me at moi@moi3d.com).

It is really hard to understand what you are seeing just from a description, a screenshot will make it much easier for me to understand.

Also, if you can post your .3dm model file that would also help as well.

One difference in what I showed was that I deleted the Ellipse curves after I completed the loft, so that you could more easily see the generated surface.

In this exercise I made the two squares and the rounds.
Firstly I lofted the two squares, then lofted a second time as shown.
Was that if interest?

Hope this is not out of place, just experimenting a bit with the concepts inspired by the thread.
