Extrude to the boundary of the 3d sketch profiles - how?

Hello,

I had to create this odd object in 3d sketch. it has a number of different dimensions, non constrained.

I generally can use basic tools to manage extrusion of the equalised surfaces. this one is a cracker. Any advise is  appreciated.

Is this a Fusion question?

You can use Surfaces and the Patch command to close in the sides.  You make it a solid using the Stitch command.  Not sure what you want to do with the Circle, but if it is to be a hole, you can Extrude it now to the depth or through.  Model attached.

out of curiosity, where are you trying to go with this?  is the intent really for there to be 179.9 degrees between these 2 faces, or is this the result of difficulty with 3d sketches?

What makes you believe that?

This is a very under constrained  sketch. Extrude is the wrong tool for this geoemetry, at lest when observing the sketch.
You can patch and stitch this with the surface modeling tools.

My recommendation would be to recreate this from scratch with fully defined 2D sketches.

My Attempt.

I could have done Sketch4 in Sketch3, but wasn't thinking clearly.

Edit: And now that I look at it, I guess I could have used only 1 sketch and still did the same Extrudes, but I would have fully defined my sketch.

Hi! This can also be done using a series of Lofts.

While there is no single right way to do it, I typically like to break down geometry creation into several features so that changes to the design don't become too difficult.  Attaching the model I created.
