Custom sphere egg shape

[vgarcia5]

Could I get some ideas on how to create the sphere egg shape in the attached image? I tried using the revolve feature but, as you can see the top view, the sphere egg shape is slanted.

Attach the *.ipt file of your attempt here.

Still a revolve... Your axis and workplane for the profile are just at an angle..

I don't have 2019 anymore to share an example with you but this should help..

[vgarcia5]

Yes, this helps. I will give it a try thanks!

No angled workplanes are needed - simple add an angle dimension to the Ellipse.

I will post example when I get back to a 2019 machine.

A little more trial...

Haha... Yeah I wasn't thinking on that one.. Or over thought it (makes me feel better 🙂 )

No angled planes at all.. Just your revolve sketch is angled about the cube.

Yes, we'll go with that!  🤔

If you are repeating dimensions - you are almost certainly doing something wrong.

Create one egg and Pattern the feature.

The 2019 example that I will post tomorrow will be even easier.

Everything seems to match up, this helped a lot, thank you!
