Creating a partial taper in a retangular hole

[Anonymous]

I need to taper a rectangular hole starting .090 down from the top and run to the bottom. I'm not having any luck and need some advice please.

Not much info in the question,

I had a quick look at the model, I found a sketch 0.09 down from the top.

Do you know the taper angle, and is it to apply to all sides of the hole?

If you know the taper angle, I would change the existing through all extrution to 0.09 deep,

then using the floor of that extrusion, make a new extrusion, cut with the taper option, and the relevant angle nominated in the process.

If you don't have a taper angle, but know the finished size of the hole at the bottom, then draw that sketch on the bottom, and Loft cut the taper, (good for variable tapers all at the same time)

Hope that helps,
