Connecting two curved faces
-
Hey forum,
I am trying to connect two identical (exept one is scaled down a little) curved faces to eachother to create a wall with a certain thickness. I currently have them placed like this:
I tried curviloft to connect them, but it would give me an arror message saying "ERRORS (22) in contours have been detected (needle eye, spine) Do you want to fix them?"
When I click yes, sketchup crashes within seconds and I can't figure out what exactly the errors are in order to manually fix them.I also tried Tools On Surface (joint push pull), but it would:
a) make sketchup crash halfway down the way and
b) it won't keep the original surface, so I can't archieve my goal of giving the fuselage some thickness.Does anybody know how to do this right?
Here's the model: front fuselage.skp
Thanks in advance,
Kevin

push the <tab> key during jpp (and a few other of fredo's tools) in order to get an options menu.. there you can pick 'thickening' for a solid offset..

Thanks Jeff, saved my day
Not only did it keep both faces, it also stopped sketchup from crashing at 79%. Problem solved.
