Find out how to connect different shapes using the Loft command.
- [Instructor] Extruding profiles is cool and all, … but there are other tools … that can create much more complex shapes … than just extruding out a sketched profile. … This is going to be a quick example of what a loft is, … and in the following videos I'll show you specifically … how to set this up. … But I just want to show you what a loft is right now. … I have three profiles here. … Kind of see that they are aligned. … I also have this little curly Q down here, … which we'll get into in a later video, … but I want to show you what a loft is. … You go to Create, Loft. … And right now I'm using the 2-11 Lofting Example … if you want to follow along. … But you select one profile. … Another. … And another. … And click OK. … And you turn off the sketches if you want. … We now have a super complex shape that is … a rectangle … flowing to a circle … through, … let me turn these back on, … a diamond in the center. … And again, these are very resilient sort of things. … You change … one of the sketch objects …
