I have imported artwork from AutoCAD as a feature in my model. I have projected the feature onto a revolved cone shape. I now need to show this is a raised feature on the surface. Any suggestions on the best method to accomplish this?

Offset surface, expand feature, or expand w/ draft

i think "offset surface, use sketch, with draft" will do this....but
requires Advanced assembly licence.

other option is to

*extrude quilts
*drafter the quilts
*offset foundation surfaces to create endcaps for the quilts
*merge extruded,k drafted quilts with end caps.
*solidy or cut with the quilts..


You might want to play with a "wrapped" curve as opposed to a "projected
curve". wrapped curves attempt to maintain length of the sketched entities
while placing them on the surface. Wrap is limited to only cylindrical
surfaces, I am not sure about conical surfaces???
