too many points/vertex - help me to loft this shape
I will have many sketches to re-do, do you want to create whole design for me ?
I need a solution that I could apply in a future.
The whole story is... I imported a mesh (95k faces), turned it into solid and created sketch via "Project cut edges" and you can see a result on a screen shot.
Actualy I am trying to improve a model that someone sent me. I think we could call it reverse engineering. So ultimately I want to redraw whole model in Inventor and I thought projecting cut edges and lofting the shapes is a good idea, is it ?

I've done like 50 projects from scratch, I would guess simple ones. For freeform modeling I am using Blender, didn't like the one in Inventor (zero expierience here).
Fusion360 ? I might try this one...
Back to my first question - so there's no way to simplify/reduce number of points in a closed loop ? Because those projected sketches seems to be decent base to work on. I planned to make some projected cross-sections and than go on with editing those lofted shapes. If "auto-reducing" isn't in Inventor I will just trace the shape as you mentioned at beginning.
Back to my expierience with Inventor - I think I can do this project but it feels like there's easier (faster?) way to do it.

Thanks again ! This looks very simmilar to the idea with projecting cut edges directly in Inventor. What if we don't have to be very precise in our work ? Cuz what I planned is to do 10-20 cross-sections and lofting them - at the moment I just need to transfer general dimensions into solid, I dont need to be very precise, with all the details, angles of curves, holes, tiny objects etc. - It will be all polished later on. Right now I need general idea of the shape in .step file.

Thanks a lot ! I am gettin right into it ! Already installed Fusion360 but I will stick with Inventor at the moment. Thanks again for your time and tips !
P.S. Proper geometry = lines & splines in sketches right ?
P.S. I am looking into PowerShape software too (but as I said I am stickin with Inventor this time)
