Additive Pipe Won't
in Part PA-01-002 I wish to create a pipe elbow between Elbow Seat End Sketch and Elbow Socket End Sketch along Blend Curve which has a ShapeBinder into the part. This should be straightforward but FC pops a Fatal Error message. I can't find anything wrong with the Sketches and I checked and redid the curve and binder.
What have I done wrong this time?

Re: Additive Pipe Won't
I found a misalignment but that didn't fic the problem. Then I replaced the B-spline with a drawn curve.
FC still refuses to sweep either of the ends along the Path.

Re: Additive Pipe Won't
Thanks, Roy. I even tried re-installing FC but that didn't make any difference.
I'll use your version!

Re: Additive Pipe Won't
Why do you have the pipe profile at both ends? you only need it once, then select each edge.
Re: Additive Pipe Won't
I think you have pointed out why I couldn't get FC to sweep. It's the clicking sequence. I'll have a play with that.
Darned annoying really! I have swept quite a few things without trouble. It's just that today ... ...

Re: Additive Pipe Won't
If I recompute Roy's model the pipe vanishes.

Re: Additive Pipe Won't
It sort of works if I redraw the the B-spline. However, the result fails CheckGeometry. Roy's model fails as well, but with different messages.

Re: Additive Pipe Won't
Here, I get a valid solid.
I changed 2 things :
- I inverted the order of the 2 circles in one of the profile sketches
- I moved the normals sketches, used by the blendcurve path to the border of the 2 profiles, so that the sweep path is the shortest / steepest.
To me, this last rule should be applied as often as possible, to avoid self-intersections in sweep.

Re: Additive Pipe Won't
I forgot about that trick. I have had that problem before. Grrr!
That's a good one. Thanks.
