another loft misbehaving...

Hi,

 

Im still trying to understand lofts.

 

In the example here I pull this profile along the shape of the body. This works as long as I dont cross the tip/corner on the bottom.

 

If I do try to loft around the corner neither rails not centerlines works. Any workflow tips on how to construct the model that the loft would work?

 

P.S. and I cant just sweep the profile later on the different loft profiles will be different.

The profile shape is going to cause the problem, the overhang in Sketch 7, is crossing back into the right hand side of the plate object.

 

Best guess is to loft half and mirror for the left side, the change in profile may assist with less overhang.
