Path direction antiparallel to end direction

Hi guys,

 

I am trying to 3D model a pipe that at the end turns with a 60 deg angle (See Uploaded picture).

It all runs fine when only 90 deg turns are present, but at the very end when the 90 deg turn is rotated 60 deg it would give me an error message that the start path is antiparallel to the end path direction.

 

I have tried to redraw the path or use the sweep command but no luck the same error is displayed.

Any help would be much appreciated! 

Sebastian

Without the file, my guess is the segment is not tangent or connected to the previous path segment.

But if that were the case, I would expect, path is not curvature continuous error, as in Loft rails etc.

 

Might help....

I think "pivot" could become your friend.
