Hello,
I am trying to reverse engineer this car part for 3d printing. I have gotten the surfaces as accurate as I can get them without any of the actual fillets. When I try to fillet the front corners the fillet does not carry through properly at the radius I need, it is too large. This is the first time I’ve tried surfacing a part and have gotten this far, I need some help to drive it home. Any input would be helpful!
Hi @Keanu_Fabiana,
It’s best that post your 3dm file so our forum experts can have a look-see.

Here you go!
you will be doing this manually- see below-
explode your surfaces then trim , blend curve, 2 rail sweep, matchsrf etc, until you get what you want.
then join it all back up and check for naked edges with showedges.
THE Kyle Houchens! Thank-you very much for the reply and solution. Btw, your videos have been incredibly helpful getting me started with rhino. Thanks again.
Beginner question. Can you please show me how you went about trimming?
Nevermind, I figured it out! Thank you sir.
if you have not watched @sgreenawalt series “primary surfacing”
it’s the best video series I’ve seen for this type of stuff, and I always recommend it for folks looking to go from good to great at 3d modeling-
enjoy-
