I am trying to model a tube that flows across the 3 axis in a more “organic way”. But apparently that seems to be a really hard job here on Shapr3d. I found a few posts showing work-arounds but none actually seems to help me with what I want.
I’ve attached some images to help you understand the problem:
Image01 - An illustrative object portraying the desired result I want to achieve
Image 02 - An illustration of the curve I want to use as the “Sweep path” or “Extrude path”
Image 03 - A screen print of my attempt to build it on Shapr 3d (No success)
The curve is a simple revolve. The part you want to make, starting from the left, is a short straight extrusion followed by a revolve then another extrusion which includes a rotation about the center of the square.
(Last extrusion not shown)
You probably already know 3d Sketch is a missing feature, lot of other Shapr like software has it.
I made the curve in Rhino and saved it as IGES, but much prefer to do all of this on a Tablet and Mac and go back and forth thats the one of biggest benefit with Shapr.
