i created a few sketches using splines as seen on the Left of the attached image, and combined them using a swept blend (the sketch on the top is a circle). For some reason, the swept blend makes a strange S-curved bend along the surface, whereas I am trying to make it straight. I tried adjusting the shape of the splines, but that didn't affect the S-curve. Let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks.

thanks m g



ideas that worked:



-Maybe try to create one half at a time (left half, then right half).


-use boundary blends instead.
