Hi,
I am here because I figure this community knows solidworks/cad packages ins and outs and i was hoping you might be bale to help me..?
I am trying to design a blade with multiple sections with a twist angle, but i am new to solidworks and cant get it to loft. can anyone point me in the right direction?
I have tried lofting whole blade and twisting each section separate but no joy with that as it becomes one whole body.
I have tried flexing each section and lofting the sections together but no joy because they are all multiple bodies and i dont really know how it works.
It feels like i am real close to a solution but i just cant make that breahthrough.
Its a wind turb blade by the way.

My many thanks in advance!
