I can't seem to get these three surfaces to join.

I have done a two rail sweep to create the joining lip.

Anybody know why ?

Is the scale of the model too big or too small ?

Hi Kevin, the surfaces have too large of a gap between them to join, it seems to be that at least one of your profiles over here is a fair distance away from the rails:






Maybe that profile got dragged over a little bit accidentally or something?

Try deleteing the current sweep, drag that one errant profile over into place (grab near the end with object snap and straight snap active and then go over until you get an "int" snap on the rail), then redo the sweep and it should then join in ok.

I did a quick check of the other profiles and it looks like all the others are ok, it just seems to be that one that's out of place.

Hope this helps!

- Michael

Hi Michael

Thanks very much.

That profile was mirrored across the centreline.
Something must of moved ever so slightly with the profiles used to create the two scooped lofts in the first place. Looks like back to the drawing board with them.

I've been having joining problems on other models also so I now know where to look for problems.
