Triangular Pyramid

[leoheck]

Hi folks, do you have any tutorial on how to make a pyramid? I want to make a triangular pyramid (aka tetrahedron). would like to model something like a Four-sided die

- Sketcher or Draft: create the rectangle
- Draft: create the point and place it in the right position by changing its Placement
- Part: Loft between the rectangle and the point.

I like this model much more than the often used lofts with an ever so tiny polygonial tip.

@sisolre your method is elegant, I liked too.
@chrisb, I was using the one you described but it is not that clean.

if you want to print it cris methos is a bit better to cura
if you like to stay a real solid its more to the point version
