Column Structure Problem

Hello everbody.

I've a problem building my column structure.

In my project the column should be (is) a smooth shape which devolps from the roof flowing into the ground.

But I don't get it. It should be similar to the column in the image.

I hope you can help me.

Thank you very much.

Greetings

Phil

Hello,
You question is far from clear, you need revolution, loft ... .?

Thanks a lot for the quick reply.

Now I get it.

Do you also know how to thicken a Brep? Is it possibl?

I tried it a few days ago with T-Splines but it don't look right...

Maybe you have an idea as well?

Thanks a lot. You're great!

I understand you want something thin. So offset the brep and join the edges curves with sweep 2 rail for example. If you have already a volume you could use shell ...

But I can only offset surfaces, no breps.

Maybe you can give me an example?

Thank you very much!
