Dear Community,  
i’m new to Shapr3D but until now i managed to design everything iw anted as i wanted using the tutorials. Now i have to “reengineer” a hip flask (see attached drawing).

I managed tho create the Body itself, no problem, but how do I create the second bend (seen from above)?

I am grateful for any help!

You need to create several sketches from different views. Then extrude all of them and then intersect. Will add video in a couple of minutes.

This is very quick example, you still have to manage all the sizes correctly.

Far from finished product, just another quick test.

I don’t know how to clean a flat — I own a house.

On a serious note, I have no idea what this is referring to.

Hey @Xdrakosha

Sorry, I meant hip flask. 😀

Actually, I know the hip flask from the army.

And the bottle has a min. Capacity of one liter.

Great. But what exactly do you want to clean? What I showed in the last video doesn’t require any cleaning.

This is the result of intersection and a couple of filets, that’s all.

That’s right, but the bottle should be thoroughly cleaned at some point. And this form you have chosen is very tedious to clean.

Sorry, I don’t understand you.

I didn’t choose the shape — I just showed how to do what the person wanted to achieve. Maybe that question wasn’t even addressed to me.

Maybe it was just a misunderstanding.

To me, the bottle looks like a perfume bottle.  
😀

I understood that you only explained the technical possibility with the program. So how to make the design according to the template.

Looks like it. I honestly thought you were asking how to clean up the 3D model 🙂

May be.

Hey @Xdrakosha  
To me it looks like it’s a glass bottle

Hi,  
Step by step, an other process with the plan…  
Sketch on plan, Loft, Extrude Intersect, Revolve+Union and finish with fillets.  
You can view it [here](https://collaborate.shapr3d.com/v/wRAkT4zQFaQVNoHR8JOLv) .

Hey @IkarusX @jean-philippe2 @Xdrakosha

I think that’s a very nice design.
