I’m doing a wrap of a face to a circle, but the fillet is removed. What am I doing wrong?
You’re working too small. Scale the model up by a factor of 100 or 1000. Also delete the face of the circle so when Follow Me completes the faces will be correctly oriented.
Are you modeling for 3D Printing? What are the dimensions of the thing?
Are you still using SketchUp 2017 Make?
Dave-
Using 2020 Pro.
3d Printing, yes. main trunk is 1”, w ~1/16” fillet.
Please update your forum profile.
You need to be working larger, then. When I model for 3D printing I set units to meters and model as if inches or millimeters are meters. If I’m thinking in inches I would make the trunk 1 meter tall and the fillet 0.0625m. Then, because my slicer only works with millimeters I would scale the model up by 25.4x before exporting the STL file so it’s the correct size.
Looks like removing the face, and drawing the circle smaller than the object worked.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Should still work larger. You can use more segments for curves and get smoother surfaces, too.
Thanks.
