Transpose curved face into an object ?

Hi
Not sure if I have the description right. Anyway I have managed to make a curved skirt as per attached, using arcs and push pull etc.

Now I want to give it some body, on a flat surface push/pull would do exactly what I want.

Where do I go from here to get some thickness. Have tried follow-me but could not get it to work. Maybe not doing it right.

Thanks and regards

Charlie

Best solution I am thinking right now is to copy/move your surface, then fill the gaps ...

Search out the Joint Push/Pull plugin. It will do exactly what you require....ie. P/P curved surfaces.
There are links on this thread to the latest versions of many of Fredos plugins.
