How to Create a Curved Hole?

[Anonymous]

Hi everybody,

I am looking to create a curved hole.  Imagine a tunnel snaking through a solid block that changes its angle as it works its way through the material.  Is there a quick way to do this in Inventor?

You can do that with Sweep.

If you can't figure out the Sweep - attach your *.ipt file here.
