Thanks for all the help all sorted nom

I'd just tried curviloft which works well however my triangles edges seem to have been softened, unlike yours do you know of any reason for this. I would prefer the sharper edges.

Thanks for the replies,

I,ve attached the file so you can see what is going on.The file shows the dimension I want but also I've scaled it up with the same results. Sometimes it will bend but only one way, the arrow key won't reverse the direction. others like this one give no bend and I also seem to get a straight with a kink. Jeff your file seemed to work fine

Hi All I want to extrude a tapered triangle along curve.What I want to achieve is a tianlge 54mm along the base tapering to 34mm at the far end of the extrusion. The path is a curve around 400mm long with a rad of 395mm. I've tried using the shape bender plug in but it doesn't work I seem to get a straight extrusion with a kink in it. Any ideas on what I can do?
