      Im trying to build an awning that goes around the corner of the building at 90 degrees. There must be some way to pull the awning around the corner (maybe push-pull?) Im not sure.

      Help would be appreciated greatly!

      Thanks

        push pull works normal to the surface so around corners is a problem. Use the follow me tool , think of a section through your awning ( so it will probably look like an L shape with top part of it slanted to account for the slope and the bottom the " eave". Draw this and have it follow a line you have drawn. The follow me needs a small surface to work on so you will have to add thickness to the material to get that ref.
