Off-shaped cylindrical object from 2D sketches?

Anonymous

Hi everyone! I'm new to Fusion 360 and CAD in general, and I was wondering how could I form a 3D object from these 2D sketches? The end product is meant to be a pill-shaped object with the fillet radius of one part being greater. Sweep and loft don't seem to work, is there another tool I could use that I'm forgetting? Thanks in advance!

Creating a body with these sketches only makes sense if the ends are unevenly rounded.
This could be done with loft in surface mode.

Original drawing does not have intersection here,

I can match side or top but not both.

It works also with lofting a solid.

As can be seen in the previous posts  your sketches in 3 planes are not enough to specify how you wont the object to look like.

A hand sketch (pencil, paper, scan or photograph) will likely convey that better.

For future reference you should always use the native Fusion 360 file extensions to share your designs.

.f3d for individual sefl-contained designs

.f3z for assemblies with linked components and derived objects.

 

Here's my Interpretation:
