    As you can see in the picture, i am trying to make a countour. I have used 2 splines in an extrude nurb then put them in a boole to make a hole. I am looking now to join the 2 corners in a type of curbature form, so make a curb that joins them smoothly. Problem is that there are caps to both extrude nurbs and i’m not sure how to go about it.

    Could anyone please assist me?

    The easiest way to make that shape would be to use a sweep NURBS object, sweeping a circular profile around a rectangular (or rounded rectangular) path spline.

    Ugh, that blocks me because i really don’t understand what’s the logic behind sweep nurbs. I’ll have to look around the net for an explanation because i really don’t understand how it creates shapes and so forth.

    Thank you for you time.

    check out Sweep Object in the Help, it has a pretty good explanation.
