Jeffrey W Ouellette Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Try 'Extrude Along Path". First create a 2D gutter profile (you can do this in plan view). Next draw a polyline along the edge of the roof you wish to gutter. You can draw it or offset from the edge of the roof as you wish. Select both objects and select 'Extrude Along Path'. From EAP dialog controls, highlight the path object. After the extrude is done, you'll need to 'Enter Group' and edit the location of the profile relative to the origin. By default it places the center of the profile along the path. Then, in a 3D view (front, back, left, right) move the whole extrusion up/down. Quote Link to comment

Jonathan Pickup Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 if your eaves are straight, then a simple extrude will do the job, otherwise the extrude along a path is the way to go. Quote Link to comment
Mecacarl Posted February 7, 2008 Author Share Posted February 7, 2008 Wes you make me laugh. I'll remember to keep laughing "all the way to the bank". Just kidding, no offense, no harm. Quote Link to comment
