      Hello from France. I need to bend a solid cone with a 90° angle. What pluging to do this, please ? The aim is to make an air entrance for a model boat with 3D Impress. Thanks in advance.

        @Christian_33 what version of SketchUp are you using? Can you show an image of the sort of thing you are trying to create?

        My first thought is to use Curviloft with a centerline and the shapes at the ends for profiles. Might be other options, too.

        With Curviloft.

          You can taper a curved cylinder by using selective edge welding.
