Hello. I have a simple question - on the image posted, there are sketeches forming a body of a ship visible. How do i turn this into a solid? like, it should be possible to create a solid acording to those sketches. Or is there an error I should be aware of? Thank you, rgds Steve 🙂

Sketches appear to be unconstrained?

I recommend going through the Getting Started Tutorials.

Can you File>Export your *.f3d file to your local drive and then Attach it here to a Reply?

HEllo, thanks for your help 😄 you know, I'm a noob so there's a chance the sketches are completely wrong 😛 Here's the archive file.

Loft is not an easy command but it is the one you need for your design.  I took a lot of liberty in my edit of your sketches to get it to work.  Loft with Rails depends on two things, the profiles must be closed and the rails must intersect the profiles only once.  Take a look at the Screencast and follow along in the model which is attached.

Hello. Well, thank you, but the adjustment you made on the sketches totally changed the look of the finished solid 😄 Is it possible to create a loft just out of the shapes that I made? I tried several times to create a loft, and it always said "The rail isn't smooth" or "The rail does not ouch all profiles". Is there a way to fix this without changing the overall look? Tahnks very much, Jan.

No, your sketch, as it was had all the issues you mentioned.  I was only trying to “generally” use your sketch to give you a sample for you to follow.  Now you can take your original sketch and fix it to suit you. You said you were new to Fusion 360 so I did my best to modify your sketch to successfully create a solid, which you ask for it your original post.
