Create angled supports

Hi guys,

 

Been playing with this for 2 hours, lol.

 

I want to model in gradual supports for some magnet holders. Here is the holder in question.

What I am looking for is for the bottom curved area to nicely taper into the back body.

 

I tried to simply draft the whole bottom and sides area but it wont let me draft past 10 degrees, I need a loft of 70 degrees (so I get an offset angle of 20 degrees so I can print without supports).

 

Best I managed is this:

Using a dummy extrude and a closed loft, but it looks awful.

 

Anyone have any ideas how I could do this?

 

Thanks, Mike

Mike.

Please attach one of your supports.  If you do not know how to attach your Fusion 360 model follow these easy steps. Open the model in Fusion 360, select the File menu, then Export and save as a F3D or F3Z file to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section, of a forum post, to attach it.
