help with the sweep tool

[mark2009]

Hi guys,


I'm trying to create a flashing that goes around a pitch roof, that's flushed against the roof, not angle to one direction.


please see the attachments.


Cheers,

I looked at it and you need 3 types of flashing with 3 different angles.

Also the roof tool isn't used the way it is intended in this model.

Is there an easier way to achieve that?

[Ric Weber]

Have you tried creating two types of fascia? One with the pitch of the roof for the eaves and the other with a 90 degree angle for the rakes? If I really wanted to model something that specific as flashing, I think that is how I would try it.

yep, I made 2 for a skillion roof. 0 degrees (90) and 8 degrees. never quite worked out how to make a parametric profile for it.

cheers for all your comments. I've tried the roof: fasica, but the profiles don't miter.

Yep, mine didn't at corners.
