We're trying to create a manifold that goes from this shape here that comes over here to this more rectangular shape here with rounded corners and we're probably going to be creating some surfaces later on using this shape so the first thing you'll need to do though is create some guide curves that are going to control the flow of that surface up to the next. So I can see that the designer of this originally said, pretty much wants us to kind of go in this direction here and if you look at it in this view over here, select the front view or the right view, I can see the profile it wants to be in. And then we want to use these lines to kind of create a composite curve that will guide our shape. So to do that we have to do a few…
