Corner filling using spline and revolve

[birdtrick]

Hi,

I am trying to fill in a corner with a contour as shown in the attached screenshots. I'm using the spline and revolve method, and don't know how to properly fill in the resulting hollow space. I'm also struggling to figure out how to convert the spline to a body when finished.

Thanks for any help.

File >Export and then Attach your *.f3d file here.

I don’t think you need the Spline and Revolve.

Finish the spline sketch to create the profile (orange shading), then use Solid > Revolve > Join, 

use the centre boss axis for the revolve.

Might help....

Thanks for these suggestions. Seems either spline revolve or fillet will work. I’m going to try both.

Many ways to go about it.. none of which I was going to figure out myself. Thanks guys!  Such a helpful group here.

If I were to sketch a spline for this Revolve - it would have only two nodes, a beginning point and and ending point.

I would use the Handles to control the curvature.
