Create a 3D path from the intersection of two extrusions

“

- [Instructor] Let's turn on all the layers by typing layon enter and work on the next item which is the seat frame here. And there ae actually two different items here, representing the plan and elevation of that frame but neither of these sketches, is actually the three dimensional path that I want to use. So I'm going to have to find that path by intersecting these curves. First let's create a new layer, called dash seat frame. Set at current. Give it a color. I'll make it blue and then go to the surface tab and extrude this as a surface some arbitrary distance, like that. Do the same thing for this curve and have it go through the other one. Like that. Now the actual form that I want is the intersection of these two surfaces. So I'm going to use trim. I'll trim this surface, enter, with this other one, enter and then click on that one to trim it away. Then I can erase this surface entirely. And then explode this surface and then I'll isolate it's layer. Layiso, enter. And I just…
