Curved Surfaces
-
Hi all, I am trying to make a model of Harry Potter's Moaning Myrtle's Sinks, and I am having a bit of a problem with the front corners. The corner is upright on the side but out at a 40 deg. angle at the front. I am running Sketchup Pro 2018 on an HP Pavilion 500-449 PC with windows 10 installed. I am also working with the primitive tools. Is there an extension or plugin that can help me in modelling it correctly? Any responses can reach me at popadave5@gmail.com. I've been working on this project for a while and the rest of the model seems o.k. but this part is a little beyond me.

Can you put an image or a file of what do you want modelize ?

It's this.

The sink next to the octagon I used several plug-ins, Curvi-loft, round corner. The ones to the right I used the native tools. I created a basic outline, copied that down on the blue axis, created a plane at 40 degrees, moved the front two corners back and in until they were intersecting with the plane and the edges. I hand stitched the top and bottom corners together. Made a group, made a copy, scaled one of the copies down by .9, dropped it in the center of the larger one, exploded them both, and deleted the face. I made a rim for the sink using "follow me". Scaled it up by 1000, and intersected.
I'm sorry, I'm not the best explainer and I sure can't make you a gif. So I hope that was enough information to head you in the right direction.
Good luck,
Chris
