Trouble Creating a Loft

Hi,

 

I am trying to create a loft between the two highlighted profiles, but cannot figure out why it is not working.

Fab_Things_0-1710917957442.png

Can I create a loft from a body surface to a sketch (Sketch #14)?  I originally projected the larger circle to Sketch 14's plane so I can position the end of the loft in the right spot (the inner circle of Sketch 14 to be tangent with the inner circle of the larger projected circle).

 

What is the correct way to do this?

Fusion has never been able to Loft hollow (walled) profiles in one go.

 

Loft both outer circle profiles to create the material.

Loft the inner circle profiles as a cut.

 

Might help….

Hi,

1. create a sketch via project "inlet pipe" profile

2. create outside loft > join

3. create inside loft > cut

Thank you @davebYYPCU    I didn't realize you need to create a solid loft and then cut it.  👍
