@itnewsbot The twisted result is thinner in the middle. So a poor method was chosen if a constant thickness is required. A single thick offset of 3 joined surfaces with a solid result would fix that. Sketch, clone and positioning was good. But the blend curves without 3D handles is clumsy. As well as swapping workbenches to get curves that didn't need 8 joins, is another learnability barrier to be fixed. E.G. both blend curve types in 1 command with a switch. Better default end snapping too.
