Loft

Today we learnt how to use the Loft tool. The Loft tool allows you to create a object by using a shape and a path. From this i was able to draw a helix path and a circle to create a spring. To do this I drew the Helix and the Circle and then selected the Circle and selected the Loft tool. Under the Loft tool details I selected Get Path from the Creation Method section and then clicked the helix path to make the spring. From this I then modified the height and the number of turns in the helix and created a new object using a rectangle. This created a Drill Head.
