Feature repetition with auto resize along curved path

Hello,

 

I would like to repeat a feature along a curved path and ensure that the given feature would auto resize based on the curved path.

Please see attached the screenshot with a mark up of what I need!

Any help would be appreciated!

It looks like a  non-circular bottle shape, for which I would use Loft feature. If you explain or show (with images) what the final outcome is supposed to be, it will be easier to give advise.

Hi

If the sections are circular, the Revolve tool is sufficient.

Create a longitudinal section, change the center line type to axis, and create a surface or solid as needed.

Hi! Or, use Guide Rail Sweep. All you need is a straight path at the center. Then sweep along the path and select the spline as the guide rail.

Many thanks!
