Does anybody know how I would attempt to make a satellite dish in WF 2.0 ?As everybody knows all dishes have different shapes, the one I'm attempting to draw has an ellipse shape to it. If anybody has any idea in which direction i should head i would greatly appreicate it.

Use WF 2.0 sheetmetal module. It is very easy to create any type of dish in it.


If you can't tell me and I will send you one as reply to this post.

Use datum curves to define your ellipse. You will have 3 curves, two the outer portions of your dish and one the cross section through center. You can create either a surface using the curves as boundary curves, or you can create a protrusion as a blend between the three curves.
