Solidify multiple 3D objects along path

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello,

I'm trying to make a vase, but I'm not sure how to create a solid (able to hold volume) from the several 2d objects along the Z axis I created.

I know there is lofting, sweeping, revolving, extruding- but I've only been able to accomplish these actions on a single object.

 

Pictures: Left is the product, the right picture is where I'm at.

If anyone would be able to assist that would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Tyler

Using LOFT (with more detailed cross sections to define all curve directions) create the outer fluted solid (white closed entities), then create a second solid from the magenta circles and SUBTRACT the last from the first to create the interior.

Thank you both for the responses.

I'm having a problem with the segment that you pointed out Patchy.

 

That area (an arc) will not turn into a polyline for me with Pedit. So I have a line that exposes the vase (hence it's just a surface at this point)

I thought my attached dwg already fixed that.

How about this one?
