      Dave R.,

      Yep. I’m not surprised that the answer is something obvious. This worked great. Thank you. The Follow Me tool never ceases to confuse me. If I use this 4 times in a row to perform exactly the same operation, I’ll get 4 different results. Occasionally, one of these results is intended, more often, none are. I’ve tried video tutorials, the Help Center, magic incantations, and even reading directions. I’ll keep plugging away.

      Thanks again,

      Kevin

        Kevin,

        I find it's a bit like crossword puzzles. Once in awhile you have a vague clue for a word and you get stuck thinking down the wrong path. You struggle to find a word that will fit and it doesn't come. The next day you read the clue differently and get the answer right away. After awhile you discover they keep using the same words over and over. The next time you run into the clue, there's no struggle at all. 😉

          Exactly. You pegged it.

            Glad you posted this problem for Dave, Kevin. I would have spent three times as long doing the first profile on the leg, copying and rotating it, mating the two and then intersecting and erasing all of the extraneous stuff.

            May all your dimensions be the sum of their total.

              FWIW, I did a quick little video of the curved tapering.

              I tried to embed it but for whatever reason it didn't work.
