Volume creation by 2 sketches

3D Design Volume Model
1

Hello

I'm on Solidworks Prenium 2016 x64 Edition SP 5.0.

I create a first closed sketch on a plane 1. The figure contains 4 sides.

I create a second closed sketch on a plane 2. The figure contains 5 sides.

Planes 1 and 2 are parallel.

I'd like to create a volume (full or shell) going through these two sketches.

At the top the screenshot of the sketches made.

At the bottom is the sketch of the desired volume.

I can't get what I want with the Bossing/Smoothed Base function, the volume created loses a face and/or the faces don't meet my expectations, for example:

I enclose my piece.

Could you tell me how I can achieve the desired volume?

Thank you

Hello, for other members, please specify your version of Solid.

Personally I can't open the room.

Kind regards

Hello

You have to create your guide curves (represented in red on the "desired volume" image), in a 3d sketch, for example, and then select them one by one in your Bossing/Smoothed Base function (in the "guide curve" part).

Hello

Why not do it with two rectangular sketches and then finalize with material removal???

Hello

With the smoothing function, you just have to align the 2 blue dots

No, in fact, after multiple tries, I can't do it.

I have selected my Guide Curves for my 3d Sketch:

Here are my results:

The segment in red should have been created, it is not and the segment just above it exists, it should not:

if I am not mistaken,

Between 2 guide curves, you need a segment, 2 guide curves that join together is a problem.

so you should not make this last "corner (triangle)" in the smoothing, make a right angle,

then add a removal of material to create this "corner (triangle)"

to create your piece 

you need to create 5 guide curves in 3D sketch

See attached image

I don't give you the file I'm in SW 2017

@ olivier 

you can have 2 guide curves that join without problem

See the attached file above

and it is possible to create the requested part

with 5 3D sketch guide curves and smoothing
