Hi all,
I'm trying to use the multiple rail extrude function in modeler, but with
very little success. I've read the manual but it doesn't give too much info
on it. I can single rail extrude until the cows come home, but the multiple
extrude has me baffled.
I made two curves using the sketch tool and put them in background
layers. I put a disc in the foreground, oriented it in the correct position
(with the normal in the correct direction), but when extruded it goes
everywhere. I've tried changing the direction of the disc normal, the
direction of the curves (starting ends), I've tried it with both curves in
the same layer and in separate layers; I've tried it with the curves
overlapping each other and with a point from each curve merged so there is a
common point on the two curves.
Any suggestions from out there? Anybody had any luck with this
feature? Anybody with a short tutorial? For example, how would I take two
curves and shape them to form a letter, say "Y", and extrude a disc so that
the finished product is shaped like the letter "Y" but with a tubular cross
sectional shape?
Thanks in advance,
Mike Crumpler
