Square pipes

How to correctly model a square pipe as in the photo, but with the appropriate tip? I use sweep but I can't select the end profile and without the end profile my pipe rotates. I also tried the Loft function, but it didn't work.

Hi! The issue is with the sharp corner. Sweep can only keep the profile normal to the path or parallel to the path. In such sharp corner, it has to rotate itself to maintain the profile orientation relative to the path. You will either need to round the corner.

Many thanks!
