join non-flat surfaces: better method.

[Vit1]

As I have already had the opportunity to write, I am at first with solidworks and I hope you will forgive me for the banality of the question.

I often find myself shaping pieces that require two curved surfaces or a curved surface and a plane to meet. I can't always get out of it with good quality solutions, I often find myself starting from head or having to repeat cuts, create many functions, etc.

one of the examples is the attached file. I finally solve creating bigger extrusions than I needed to cut, but I wondered if there is a more elegant solution.

In practice I would like to combine two cylinders, one orthogonal to the other, without extruding a rectangle (see attached image) also because the cylinders could be hollow inside. I tried for example with the basic extrusion with loft but I can't get a good result and in any case I can't join the two cylinders without creating at least 4 drawings (2 that will become surfaces and 2 guidelines).

I hope I've been explained quite clearly, if that's not the case, let me know.

.

in that specific case to join those two cylinders you just do the sketch of the face connection element in the plant, building the sketch plan at the appropriate height, then make a blind extrusion of the depth you need. a sketch and a feature.. .[edit]if the two clindri are cables you can do the rectangle sketch on a vertical plane placed between the two cylinders po setrudi in two disections imposing as limit the surface of each cilindo

I attach the pictures I had forgotten in the post before.

p.s. I was rereaded and that text seems written by a drunk dysgraphic to which, as if not enough, fingers two were tied with the duct tape... :redface::redface:

Thank you very much, the solution with the green cylinders is what I finally adopted. double extrusion with "up to the surface" instead is what I was looking for.
