Hello there! I was wondering what´s the best way to create a rounded shape like this WITHOUT using any extension. Anyone has any good idea? 😬

The Follow Me Tool is what you are looking for. [From the Help pages](https://help.sketchup.com/en/sketchup/extruding-follow-me)

While Follow Me is the ideal tool for this, it is important to understand that you can manipulate shapes by using the underlying hidden geometry that makes up everything.
