      I hate to say I give up but I need to save the rest of my hair and I would really like to learn how to make the attached bends and curves....So...How do I do these all at once?

      Thank You

          Boofredlay's solution probably fits the bill... But a better image would help us be sure... πŸ˜•

              a drive-in tray! πŸŽ‰

              My take: draw outline shape using circle, line, arc, and offset tool. Draw plan of tray with rectangle and arc tool. Plugins: Weld (or recurve) profile and tray plan edges (or soften lines on finished shape instead). Use follow-me.

              The detail (segments in arcs & cirlces etc.) depends on if you are just showing a tray or the whole drive in. (On second thought with the '57 Chevys and all, the tray polygons are irrelevant πŸ˜‰ )

                Hi folks.

                Peter beats me but see this SU file for ideas anyway:

                    This would look perfect hanging from the window of one of my classics
