Creating a bulge on a square object

[Anonymous]

Hi Guys,

Question from a Beginner..

I would like to make a bulge attached to a square box. This bulge must be round and not as attached example.

Lofting is your friend in this case . "Round" can mean many things. As the bulge, to sat loft is going to start from "sharp" or not round concerns, the  loft will start out sharply at these corners and then will transition into a smooth shape.

Is it to much asked if I ask to draw an example of how to do it?

No, I am working on it.

However, lofting in Fusion 360 can be rather challenging an opening better definition ow how you want the end result to look like this can be done several different ways

Here's a screencast of the simplest loft.

Hi Peter,

Thank you very much! I think this could work for me. Is there another way to get the 'bulge' rounder?

Sure. the best way is to fillet the edges so the loft profile already has rounded edges.
