Leave it with me for a while, I think that this might have to be converted to a surface model and patches done to get the blend and then back to a solid.

I tried some delete face and heal, but it's hung up my system.

Greetings Blair

I would truly appreciate the model when you do get a chance.Surfaces is 1 tool i would like to learn

It would be nice to get this hape correct.

Thanks again

Hi Blair

Just a quick question

1. Was the attached surface model how you would make the model?

2. Will you be able to post your attempt anytime soon

Thank you

I haven't even had time to look at doing anything on this (some of us work 6 days a week and do this to fill in the remainder of the time).

You should be starting to coil the other way. You will still have a problem with the transition of the "Feed Tube" into the body. Either this needs to have a pitch (increasing in radius) or the center of the "Feed-Tube" can't be at the same point as the center of the body.

1.) When people post with files "created with educational version", people are reluctant to do the students work. This shows the tube with the proper transistion/blend into the body.
