      <description>&lt;P&gt;Is this the correct forum to be posting questions around how to design in Autocad or where should I be posting?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>If you are using the MAC version, this is the correct forum.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;AutoCAD is not the best choice to create organic shapes like trees and branches: but there are many 'free'  and not-so-free blocks and libraries already created that you might benefit from, try a google search for these.</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Tried lots of Google searches but to no avail. First question on the google blocks (I assume you mean 3D objects when you say this), is how do I import them into AutoCAD? When I import the wire frames nothing happens, the work seems to be compelte but the objects are not there.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Secondly I have had a look at tapering tubes to be able to get branch like formations. The way I go about this is :&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;1) Create a curve line&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2) Create a circle&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;3) Sweep the circle onto the line&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;4) modify -&amp;gt; solid editing -&amp;gt; taper&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;5) Select Faces by clicking on the new tube (all faces select). Press enter to accept selection.&lt;BR /&gt;6) Specify base point: I click on the centre of the one side of the tube.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;7)&amp;nbsp;Specify another point along the axis of tapering: Not sure what this is supposed to be but clicking on the centre of the tube&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;8) Specifiy the tape angle: Needs to be between -90 and 90. Eneter a random number&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Modeling Operation Error:&lt;BR /&gt;could not taper surface as requested&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;What am I doing wrong? Dammit just want to make a branch &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://forums.autodesk.com/html/@38DF24EF580240D512020314976B5FC8/emoticons/1f642.png" alt=":cara_con_una_leve_sonrisa:" title=":cara_con_una_leve_sonrisa:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>Hi,&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;I think in your case it is better to use LOFT command:&lt;BR /&gt;- create spline (or polyline) to use it as a path for loft&lt;BR /&gt;- create two circles on the end points of the path - align them perpendicular to the path at this points,&lt;BR /&gt;- start LOFT command and select first and second circle, than hit Return two times and select "path" option,&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Maxim</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I attached sample loft object, which I created. Maxim&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>That is perfect! I have my first branch.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;What would be the best way to smooth the objects into each other as the edges are rather rough?</description>

      <description>You can try to convert 3D Solids to Mesh objects with MESHSMOOTHMORE command and apply different smooth levels.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Maxim</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi Maxim,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;How did you align the circles so that they were perpendicular to the path at the end points?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Regards,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Nick&lt;/P&gt;</description>
