Eccentric Cone

An eccentric cone is defined by:

• First point which is located at the center of the first end. The first point can be defined using an auxiliary cylinder to define the starting plane for the cone.

• Second point (Stretch) which defines the center of the other end and thus the direction and the length of the cone.

• Two radii.

  

• Click one of the action points at the center of the cone end (selected one is rounded by rectangle).

• Use context menu (RMB) to select an action Scale Shape.

• Use context menu (RMB) to select a method to define the radius for the cone.

• Select the other action point and repeat.

Note: It’s recommended to model first a cylinder using the radius and direction according to the eccentric cone and start the cone from the end of the cylinder using navigating command P (refer).
