Help with Sweep

Anonymous

I am trying to design a tube bumper. When I attempt to sweep along the path I can not get it to go flush on both ends of the tube. Not sure if I am using the wrong tool or just missing something. Thanks for any help.

I would use a profile sketch plane perpendicular to the path.

 

I would expect this design to have symmetry - so one of the Origin planes should work.  No need to create an extra workplane.

Can you attach your *.f3d file here?

See attached files.

 

Note that the sketches are fully defined.  (with fewer dimensions)

Note the symmetry about the Origin planes.

 

If you want to create these as Pipes - just a bit more work.
