Parallel Floor Sweep

Hello
Can someone help me to do a parallel sweep on the ground for the 2 feet, I can't do it

Adjust / Extend?

I wondered if it was possible in the same position

In mechanically welded it is necessary to Adjust extend
In scanning as said @sbadenis extend function
If with the extrusion function you can end up on an inclined plane but you won't be able to do it like your sweep

Good evening @Bob_2000 ,

It is impossible to get the feet parallel to the ground with a single sweep function, as the section is not normal to the trajectory...
It forms an angle of 101.31 degrees with its first segment, an angle that is maintained throughout the scan.
Also visible from above.
With finally a double tilt (202.62 degrees) at the other end of the sweep. Normal.

It is likely that the 35 x 10 mm sketch represents the straight section of a tube intended to be bent.
I see no other solution than to create the sweep with a defined section in a plane perpendicular to the trajectory, and " legs " (Sketch3D2) protruding below the lower plane (Plane 2). All this is followed by a removal of material by extrusion to obtain the correct orientation of the support faces on the ground.

The approach is quite similar using the welded construction functions, with the advantage of a section automatically normal to the trajectory, and an efficient Adjust/Extend option...
