I tried to use replace face tool on these objects and it gave me this

While I’m at it I tried using “MOVE” and rotate tool  
Here is the result

I forgot about the whole body selection nevermind the video 🙂

Is there any reason why the face is flipping backward? If it was just a simple sweep closed by a face that is almost perpendicular to the path (blue body), it would be fine.

(I will try to find out the cause)

I thought so.

So spherical “SHAPES” are a little hard to deal with at moment

Forgive me for these stupid auto correction 😅

Thanks Peter  
Now I get what you meant by that  
I moved the swept the other side now it’s working fine
