      The camber is the curvature of the side profile, the core is the longitudinal middle section and the outline is the top profile.
      As I said in my first posts. Intersect the profiles and run shape bender.

      It's exactly what I what to do! You were right with your first answer... I tried it but I made a mystake and it didn't work but now with your picture I can correct it!

      I would like to thank all of you!

    • Drawing skis on sketchup

      Hi!

      I'm Allan living in switzerland and I build homemade skis. I use sketchup to draw the shape of my skis but I just don't manage to give them the volume I want and to give them the camber the should have....

      -You know the tip/ tail are thicker than the center of the ski... How can I manage to do that?

      • Let's say we find a solution to the first point... Now I would like to give the camber to this plane ski.... How should I process?

      Thanks you for your tips!

      Allan

      EDIT:

      Like you said, with a picture it will be easier to describe What I want

    • Transform plane surface to curved surface

      Hi everyone,

      My name is Allan and I build handcrafted skis in switzerland. I would like to make some 3D prototypes skis before I start to build new shapes, but I don't know how to transform plane shapes to curved surface. What I would like to do is:

      • draw the shape of the ski
      • draw the camber
      • add the camber to the ski

      Is there any issue to do that? I know it is possible on solidworks but I don't have the budget and I don't want to return to windows.....

      Thank you for the help

      Allan
