Extend Sweep further than the selected path

Anonymous
Not applicable

I've used the sweep function to create a recess in a block I've drawn. I've used the edge of the block as the Path, but because the rear of the block is at an angle, there is still material there which I need to remove. 

 

I've tried the extrude function which removes the extra material, but not at the correct angle. Is there a way of extending the sweep further than I've already done?

 

Thanks.

Just so you know, you are posting a design question into the manufacturing forum.  You might have better luck posting your question here: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-360-design-validate/bd-p/124

This is one way (see attached). I've not exactly extended the sweep but it might be an acceptable solution.

If this answers your question please mark the thread as solved as it can help others find solutions in the future.
