Great presentation of these tools

[@mburridge01]

Fabulous capabilities and presentation.

At about 6:00, using the closed path, does it have to be a "surface"? I tried sweeping a closed "line" and it only opened a warning dialog. But I may have made some other error. Also hope you will show the Skin and Cross Skin tools. I am having a hard time using them. Thanks!

No, it can be a closed path as well. If you start with a surface you can use the “Uncover” tool to try it out.
