Loft Failure

Tell me if I'm being stupid but when creating a loft i can select the inner circle and the two together but cannot select the outer ring. i have tried waiting for select other. Does anyone else get this?Loft 1.jpgLoft 2.jpg

 

I am revolving the part but thought it's worth mentioning,

Somewhere in my mind I seem to recall someone telling me that you cannot loft a "shell". Only the whole thing, and then do a loft->cut.

I suspect that's the issue here.

Hi! Yannick is right. Loft only supports single-loop profile per section. You can only loft from one loop to another. In your case, you can create the loft based on outside loops. Then create a loft cut based on inner loops or create a shell.

Many thanks!
