Creating slope between two edges and curved sides

Anonymous

Hi,

new to fusion 360, I'm creating a part where a section is extruded out, the middle part of photo #1, which then has slopes both sides from edges on the extruded part to the to the edges on the lower face.


Tried using loft between the faces between the edges, but the sides, as seen on photo #3, go straight and don't follow the curves, I need to do additional cleaning up afterwards, by creating a sketch, projecting the curves and then extruding them out. It's really messy...

 

Is there a better way of doing it?

Maybe there is a different way of doing it without first extruding the middle part out?

A two direction chamfer will most likely do what you need:

Thanks!

 

Works great, I make a perpendicular line from the chamfered edge till the furthest point of the target edge.

 

But what about when the "end edge" isn't parallel or doesn't end with the body? Such as I marked in the image below:

I need something like 2 chamfers to each point on the "end edge" and only take the intersection of them both.
