Hello Involute,

Have you considered running the pipe parallel to the long plane so you can blend the connection out at the bottom at a less acute angle?

Thanks for the tip. At one point I thought I was going to have to put a sensor on the tube where it passes through the horizontal plate and wanted to preserve some space between the tube and inclined plane to accommodate it. Now I don't think I need it, but since I got the geometry to work as is I'm not going to mess with it. ;-)

The Pipe2 command is here.

Thanks, I found it. Slick tool!

Hello,

A technique that gets you within the bounds of your cylinder and may be less restrictive on flow. I can't post the file because I'm out of space on the forum, but I could do a video if that would be helpful.

Thanks for working on this, OSTexo. Aside from the fillets (which I just added; thanks for the idea), I'm not sure what you're doing. I won't impose by asking for a video. I have what I believe is a working solution for now. I don't think the flow will be a problem (the tube just has to pass a single M&M candy every few seconds). If it becomes one, I'll come back here and revisit.
