Follow me problem

[pbacot]

Posting the model would help solve this. It seems that follow-me should work for this. One wouldn't know which path you chose that turned out to be invalid, but they could try in their method and tell you if it worked.

Yes. Sharing the SKP file would be a big help. I can think of several reasons why Follow Me isn't working for you there but there's no point in guessing.

Thank you.

I think it works fine if you soften the intersecting perpendicular edges. You might also clean up the model before trying this. There are some other unaccountable edges inside the shape.

Does this look like what you are after?

If this is for 3D printing, you should model in meters instead of millimeters. That will help you make solid components that can be printed. No need to scale the model down before exporting the STL. Just tell the slicer software that the units are millimeters and it'll all be fine.

By the way, what is this thing?

It’s a step on a passerel and this will be the clip part that holds the handrail
Thanks for the tips
