So on open up the options and let's quickly Shade this model up here. And you can see essentially we have a ruled surface, or an extruded surface at the top, and we have a planar surface at the bottom. So we're going to go ahead, pick this edge, this edge, spacebar to build. And we've got G1 tangency on and that's exactly the result that we would expect from Profile Blend. It's a perfect result. So let's undo that and this time I'm going to go into another command called Profile Blend. Now with Profile Blend, it works very similar, but we have the ability now to add these profiles during the Blend command.
